    • Motor Control For Human Jumping To A Target 

      Westermann, Kevin (University of Waterloo, 2019-05-23)
      Investigating how humans perform dynamic movements is important for applications such as movement rehabilitation, sports training, humanoid robot design and control, and human-robot interaction. There are several hypotheses ...
    • A neural model of the motor control system 

      DeWolf, Travis (University of Waterloo, 2015-01-16)
      In this thesis I present the Recurrent Error-driven Adaptive Control Hierarchy (REACH); a large-scale spiking neuron model of the motor cortices and cerebellum of the motor control system. The REACH model consists of ...
    • Stabilization Strategies of the Lumbar Spine in Vivo 

      Grenier, Sylvain (University of Waterloo, 2002)
      In developing a method of quantifying stability in the lumbar spine Cholewicki and McGill (1996) have also broached the notion of sufficient stability, where too much stiffness (and stability) would hinder motion. Thus ...
    • Understanding Personal Determinants of Lifting Strategy to Inform Movement-Focused Ergonomic Interventions 

      Armstrong, Daniel (University of Waterloo, 2023-04-26)
      Introduction: Lift training interventions are needed to reduce risk in jobs with non-modifiable demands, but to date have been generally ineffective. The lack of lift training effectiveness has been partially attributed ...
