The effects of perturbation frequency, magnitude, and uncertainty during static and dynamic tracking on the estimated level of muscle co-contraction

Two experiments were performed to investigate the predictability of antagonistic muscle forces during static and dynamic tracking tasks with perturbations. In the first experiment, perturbations to the isometric tracking were effected by sudden momentary changes in the gain. In the second experiment...
