The Effects of Incline Level on Optimized Lower-Limb Exoskeleton Assistance

P. W. Franks, G. M. Bryan, R. Reyes, M. P. O'Donovan, K. N. Gregorczyk, S. H. Collins

This study optimizes whole-leg exoskeleton assistance for incline walking, reducing metabolic cost by at least 50% across 5°, 10°, and 15° grades.

Coupled exoskeleton assistance simplifies control and maintains metabolic benefits: a simulation study

N. A. Bianco, P. W. Franks, J. L. Hicks, S. L. Delp

This study evaluates multi-joint exoskeleton assistance using simulations, finding that coupled control strategies achieve similar metabolic savings to independent control with simpler designs.

Optimized hip-knee-ankle exoskeleton assistance at a range of walking speeds

G. M. Bryan, P. W. Franks, S. Song, A. S. Voloshina, R. Reyes, M. P. O'Donovan, K. N. Gregorczyk, S. H. Collins

This study optimizes hip-knee-ankle exoskeleton assistance across walking speeds, finding it reduces metabolic cost by 26-50% but is less effective at slow speeds.
