Everyone has experienced muscle fatigue during daily life, but it is more common during physical training or after an illness. In our research project, the muscle fatigue estimator is used as a control unit that regulates the amount of support provided by an exoskeletal system. To be more precise, the estimator is intended to predict … Read More “Muscle Fatigue Estimator (Thesis-Proposal)” »
