Feasibility of dynamic entrainment with ankle mechanical perturbation to treat locomotor deficit

Dynamically entraining human gait with periodic torque from a robot may provide an approach to walking therapy that is uniquely supportive of normal biological function. To test the feasibility of this approach we perturbed the gait of unimpaired human subjects by applying a periodic impulsive ankle...
