The ability to coordinate actions between the limbs is important for many operationally relevant tasks associated with space exploration. A future milestone in space exploration is sending humans to Mars. Therefore, an experiment was designed to examine the influence of inherent and incidental constraints on the stability characteristics associated with the bimanual control of force in simulated Martian gravity. A head-up tilt (HUT)/head-down tilt (HDT) paradigm was used to simulate gravity on Mars (22.3° HUT). Right limb dominant participants (N = 11) were required to rhythmically coordinate patterns of isometric forces in 1:1 in-phase and 1:2 multifrequency patterns by exerting force with their right and left limbs. Lissajous displays were provided to guide task performance. Participants performed 14 twenty-second practice trials at 90° HUT (Earth). Following a 30-min rest period, participants performed 2 test trials for each coordination pattern in both Earth and Mars conditions. Performance during the test trials were compared. Results indicated very effective temporal performance of the goal coordination tasks in both gravity conditions. However, results indicated differences associated with the production of force between Earth and Mars. In general, participants produced less force in simulated Martian gravity than in the Earth condition. In addition, force production was more harmonic in Martian gravity than Earth gravity for both limbs, indicating that less force distortions (adjustments, hesitations, and/or perturbations) occurred in the Mars condition than in the Earth condition. The force coherence analysis indicated significantly higher coherence in the 1:1 task than in the 1:2 task for all force frequency bands, with the highest level of coherence in the 1–4 Hz frequency band for both gravity conditions. High coherence in the 1–4 Hz frequency band is associated with a common neural drive that activates the two arms simultaneously and is consistent with the requirements of the two tasks. The results also support the notion that neural crosstalk stabilizes the performance of the 1:1 in-phase task. In addition, significantly higher coherence in the 8–12 Hz frequency bands were observed for the Earth condition than the Mars condition. Force coherence in the 8–12 Hz bands is associated with the processing of sensorimotor information, suggesting that participants were better at integrating visual, proprioceptive, and/or tactile feedback in Earth than for the Mars condition. Overall, the results indicate less neural interference in Martian gravity; however, participants appear to be more effective at using the Lissajous displays to guide performance under Earth's gravity.

协调肢体之间行动的能力对于许多与太空探索相关的操作任务非常重要。未来太空探索的一个里程碑是将人类送上火星。因此,我们设计了一项实验,以研究在模拟火星重力下双臂控制力的稳定性特征受到固有和偶然限制的影响。实验采用抬头倾斜(HUT)/低头倾斜(HDT)范式模拟火星重力(22.3° HUT)。右侧肢体占优势的参与者(11 人)需要通过左右肢体施力,以 1:1 同相和 1:2 多频模式有节奏地协调等长力模式。同时提供利萨如斯(Lissajous)显示以指导任务执行。参与者在 90° HUT(地球)位置进行了 14 次为期 20 秒的练习。休息 30 分钟后,参与者在地球和火星两种条件下对每种协调模式进行 2 次测试试验。对测试期间的表现进行了比较。结果表明,在两种重力条件下,目标协调任务的时间表现都非常有效。然而,结果表明,地球和火星在产生力方面存在差异。一般来说,参与者在模拟火星重力条件下产生的力小于地球条件下产生的力。此外,火星引力比地球引力下双肢产生的力更和谐,这表明火星条件下的力失真(调整、犹豫和/或扰动)比地球条件下少。力的连贯性分析表明,在 1:1 任务中,所有力频段的连贯性都明显高于 1:2 任务,在两种重力条件下,1-4 赫兹频段的连贯性最高。1-4赫兹频段的高一致性与同时激活两臂的共同神经驱动有关,也符合两项任务的要求。这些结果也支持神经串扰能稳定 1:1 同相任务表现的观点。此外,在 8-12 Hz 频段观察到的一致性,地球状态明显高于火星状态。8-12 Hz 频段的力连贯性与感觉运动信息的处理有关,这表明与火星状态相比,地球状态下的参与者更善于整合视觉、本体感觉和/或触觉反馈。总体而言,结果表明火星引力对神经的干扰较小;然而,在地球引力条件下,参与者似乎能更有效地利用利萨如斯显示来指导运动表现。

The jump smash is badminton's most aggressive technical manoeuvre, which is often the key to winning a match. This paper aims to explore the neuromuscular control strategies of advanced and beginner players when jumping smash in different ways. Collecting sEMG and kinematic data from 18 subjects with different motor experiences when jumping smash. Nonnegative Matrix Factorization and K-Means clustering were used to extract muscle synergies and exclude irrelevant combined synergies. Uncontrolled manifold analysis was then used to explore the association between synergies and shoulder stability. In addition, motor output at the spinal cord level was assessed by mapping sEMG to each spinal cord segment. The study found that advanced subjects could respond to different jump smash styles by adjusting the coordinated activation strategies of the upper-limb and postural muscles. Long-term training can induce a rapid decrease in the degree of co-variation of the synergies before contact with a shuttlecock to better cope with an upcoming collision. It is recommended that beginners should focus more on training the coordination of upper-limb muscles and postural muscles.

跳砸是羽毛球运动中最具攻击性的技术动作,往往是决定比赛胜负的关键。本文旨在探讨高级和初级运动员在以不同方式跳砸时的神经肌肉控制策略。本文收集了 18 名具有不同运动经验的受试者在跳砸时的 sEMG 和运动学数据。使用非负矩阵因式分解和 K-Means 聚类来提取肌肉协同作用,并排除不相关的组合协同作用。然后使用非受控流形分析来探讨协同作用与肩部稳定性之间的关联。此外,还通过将 sEMG 映射到每个脊髓节段来评估脊髓水平的运动输出。研究发现,高级受试者可以通过调整上肢和姿势肌肉的协调激活策略来应对不同的跳砸方式。长期训练可促使在接触毽子之前协同作用的共同变化程度迅速降低,从而更好地应对即将发生的碰撞。建议初学者应更加注重上肢肌肉和姿势肌肉的协调训练。

Bradykinesia, or slow movement, is a defining symptom of Parkinson's disease (PD), but the underlying neuromechanical deficits that lead to this slowness remain unclear. People with PD often have impaired rates of motor output accompanied by disruptions in neuromuscular excitation, causing abnormal, segmented, force-time curves. Previous investigations using single-joint models indicate that agonist electromyogram (EMG) silent periods cause motor segmentation. It is unknown whether motor segmentation is evident in more anatomically complex and ecologically important tasks, such as handgrip tasks. Aim 1 was to determine how handgrip rates of force change compare between people with PD and healthy young and older adults. Aim 2 was to determine whether motor segmentation is present in handgrip force and EMG measures in people with PD. Subjects performed rapid isometric handgrip pulses to 20–60% of their maximal voluntary contraction force while EMG was collected from the grip flexors and extensors. Dependent variables included the time to 90% peak force, the peak rate of force development, the duration above 90% of peak force, the number of segments in the force-time curve, the number of EMG bursts, time to relaxation from 90% of peak force, and the peak rate of force relaxation. People with PD had longer durations and lower rates of force change than young and older adults. Six of 22 people with PD had motor segmentation. People with PD had more EMG bursts compared to healthy adults and the number of EMG bursts covaried with the number of segments. Thus, control of rapid movement in Parkinson's disease can be studied using isometric handgrip. People with PD have impaired rate control compared to healthy adults and motor segmentation can be studied in handgrip.

运动迟缓是帕金森病(PD)的一个主要症状,但导致运动迟缓的潜在神经机械缺陷仍不清楚。帕金森病患者的运动输出率通常会受到影响,同时神经肌肉的兴奋也会受到干扰,从而导致异常的、分段的力-时间曲线。之前使用单关节模型进行的研究表明,激动肌电图(EMG)沉默期会导致运动分段。目前尚不清楚在解剖学上更为复杂和生态学上更为重要的任务(如手握任务)中运动分段是否明显。目的 1 是确定手握力变化率在帕金森氏症患者与健康的年轻人和老年人之间的比较情况。目的 2 是确定运动分段是否存在于帕金森氏症患者的手握力和肌电图测量中。受试者进行快速等长手握脉冲,达到最大自主收缩力的20%-60%,同时收集手握屈肌和伸肌的肌电图。因变量包括达到 90% 峰值力的时间、峰值力发展速度、超过 90% 峰值力的持续时间、力-时间曲线的段数、EMG 爆发次数、从 90% 峰值力开始放松的时间以及峰值力放松速度。与年轻人和老年人相比,帕金森病患者的持续时间更长,力量变化率更低。在22名帕金森氏症患者中,有6人出现了运动分节。与健康成年人相比,帕金森氏综合症患者的肌电图爆发次数更多,而且肌电图爆发次数与运动节段的数量相关。因此,帕金森病患者的快速运动控制可通过等长手握进行研究。与健康成人相比,帕金森病患者的速率控制能力受损,因此可以通过手握来研究运动分节。

An infant's musculoskeletal and motor development is largely affected by their environment. Understanding how different mechanical environments affect an infant's movements and muscle use is necessary to inform the juvenile products industry and reduce incidents involving inclined nursery products each year. The purpose of this study was to determine how the coordinated movements and corresponding muscle activation patterns are affected by different mechanical environments, specifically the back incline angle. Thirty-eight healthy infants (age: 6.5 ± 0.7 months; 23 M/15 F) were enrolled in this IRB-approved in-vivo biomechanics study. Surface electromyography sensors recorded muscle activity of the erector spinae, abdominal muscles, quadriceps, and hamstrings while infants rolled in five different mechanical environments: a flat surface and four device configurations representing a range of inclines infants are commonly exposed to. Coordinated movements were determined using video. In all configurations featuring an inclined seatback angle, infants experienced significantly higher erector spinae muscle activation and significantly lower abdominal muscle activation compared to the flat surface. Infants also exhibited a different coordinated movement featuring spinal extension and a pelvic thrust in the inclined device configurations that was not previously observed on the flat surface alone. Understanding how infants coordinate their movements and use their muscles during rolling in different inclined environments provides more insight into motor development and may inform the juvenile products industry. Many factors impact an infant's movements, therefore future work should explore how other environmental interactions influence an infant's movements and muscle activation, particularly for rolling.

婴儿的肌肉骨骼和运动发育在很大程度上受到环境的影响。有必要了解不同的机械环境如何影响婴儿的运动和肌肉使用,以便为幼儿产品行业提供信息,减少每年涉及倾斜式育儿产品的事故。本研究的目的是确定协调运动和相应的肌肉激活模式如何受到不同机械环境(特别是背部倾斜角度)的影响。38 名健康婴儿(年龄:6.5 ± 0.7 个月;23 名男婴/15 名女婴)参加了这项经 IRB 批准的体内生物力学研究。当婴儿在五种不同的机械环境中翻滚时,表面肌电图传感器记录了竖脊肌、腹肌、股四头肌和腿肌的肌肉活动,这五种环境分别是:平坦表面和四种设备配置,代表了婴儿经常接触到的各种倾斜度。通过视频确定协调动作。与平坦表面相比,在所有具有倾斜椅背角度的配置中,婴儿的竖脊肌活化程度明显更高,腹肌活化程度明显更低。在倾斜装置配置中,婴儿还表现出不同的协调运动,包括脊柱伸展和骨盆推力,这在以前的平面上是无法观察到的。了解婴儿在不同的倾斜环境中滚动时如何协调动作和使用肌肉,有助于深入了解运动发育情况,并为幼儿产品行业提供参考。影响婴儿运动的因素很多,因此未来的工作应探索其他环境互动如何影响婴儿的运动和肌肉激活,尤其是在滚动时。

Previous research has reported mixed findings regarding age-related changes in dynamic postural stability, quantified by margin of stability (MOS), during gait. However, age-related changes in MOS may be better elicited by tasks imposing greater challenges to the postural control system. Older adults' MOS during obstacle crossing, a destabilizing task, has previously been characterized, although studies comparing MOS during this task between younger and older adults remain sparse. This study investigated age-related changes in dynamic postural stability during quiet standing, gait, and obstacle crossing. Participants aged 20–30 (n = 20), 60–69 (n = 18), 70–79 (n = 15), and 80+ (n = 7; not analyzed statistically) years old performed these tasks while whole-body motion was tracked using motion capture. MOS in each direction was estimated throughout each trial, and integrals, transient ranges, and trial minima were extracted (as applicable). MOS time series were also ensemble averaged across age groups. No age-related differences were identified for quiet standing or gait. However, obstacle crossing metrics revealed greater stability (i.e., more positive MOS) and less instability (i.e., less negative MOS) in older adults, and reduced ranges during transients. These findings potentially arise from shorter step lengths, which may be the result of age-related physical declines; or may reflect a cautious strategy in older adults, which maximizes postural stability in the direction with the greatest consequences for foot-obstacle contact, as it changes throughout the task. This study supports the use of tasks imposing physical challenges and/or voluntary perturbations to study age-related changes in dynamic postural stability. Findings also contribute to our theoretical understanding of the time course of dynamic postural stability during functional tasks in relation to periods of transition in the base of support, and task-specific strategies adopted for obstacle crossing by older adults to maintain dynamic postural stability and mitigate fall risk.

以往的研究对步态过程中动态姿势稳定性(以稳定幅度(MOS)量化)与年龄相关的变化的研究结果不一。然而,对姿势控制系统提出更大挑战的任务可能会更好地激发与年龄相关的 MOS 变化。老年人在跨越障碍(一种破坏稳定性的任务)时的 MOS 已被描述,但比较年轻人和老年人在该任务中的 MOS 的研究仍然很少。本研究调查了安静站立、步态和跨越障碍时动态姿势稳定性的年龄相关变化。年龄分别为 20-30 岁(n = 20)、60-69 岁(n = 18)、70-79 岁(n = 15)和 80 岁以上(n = 7;未进行统计分析)的参与者在完成这些任务的同时,使用运动捕捉对全身运动进行了跟踪。在每次试验的整个过程中对每个方向的 MOS 进行估计,并提取积分、瞬态范围和试验最小值(如适用)。还对各年龄组的 MOS 时间序列进行了集合平均。在安静站立或步态方面,没有发现与年龄有关的差异。然而,障碍跨越指标显示,老年人的稳定性更高(即正 MOS 更高),不稳定性更低(即负 MOS 更低),瞬时范围更小。这些发现可能是由于步长较短造成的,这可能是与年龄有关的身体机能下降的结果;也可能反映了老年人的谨慎策略,即在整个任务过程中,在对脚与障碍物接触产生最大影响的方向上最大限度地保持姿势稳定性。这项研究支持使用强加身体挑战和/或自愿干扰的任务来研究动态姿势稳定性与年龄有关的变化。研究结果还有助于我们从理论上理解功能性任务中动态姿势稳定性的时间过程与支撑基础的过渡时期的关系,以及老年人在跨越障碍时为保持动态姿势稳定性和降低跌倒风险而采取的特定任务策略。

Purpose

Considering the relationship between aging and neuromuscular control decline, early detection of age-related changes can ensure that timely interventions are implemented to attenuate or restore neuromuscular deficits. The dynamic motor control index (DMCI), a measure based on variance accounted for (VAF) by one muscle synergy (MS), is a metric used to assess age-related changes in neuromuscular control. The aim of the study was to investigate the use of one-synergy VAF, and consecutively DMCI, in assessing age-related changes in neuromuscular control over a range of exercises with varying difficulty.

Methods

Thirty-one subjects walked on a flat and inclined treadmill, as well as performed forward and lateral stepping up tasks. Motion and muscular activity were recorded, and muscle synergy analysis was conducted using one-synergy VAF, DMCI, and number of synergies.

Results

Difference between older and younger group was observed for one-synergy VAF, DMCI for forward stepping up task (one-synergy VAF difference of 2.45 (0.22, 4.68) and DMCI of 9.21 (0.81, 17.61), p = 0.033), but not for lateral stepping up or walking.

Conclusion

The use of VAF based metrics and specifically DMCI, rather than number of MS, in combination with stepping forward exercise can provide a low-cost and easy to implement approach for assessing neuromuscular control in clinical settings.

目的考虑到衰老与神经肌肉控制能力下降之间的关系,及早发现与年龄相关的变化可确保及时采取干预措施,以减轻或恢复神经肌肉功能障碍。动态运动控制指数(DMCI)是一种基于单肌肉协同作用(MS)所占方差(VAF)的测量指标,用于评估神经肌肉控制与年龄相关的变化。本研究的目的是调查在一系列不同难度的运动中,使用单肌协同VAF和连续DMCI来评估神经肌肉控制与年龄相关的变化。结果观察到老年组和年轻组在单次协同 VAF、向前迈步任务的 DMCI 方面存在差异(单次协同 VAF 差异为 2.45(0.22,4.68),DMCI 为 9.21(0.81,17.68))。结论使用基于 VAF 的指标,特别是 DMCI,而不是 MS 的数量,结合向前迈步运动,可以为临床环境中评估神经肌肉控制提供一种低成本且易于实施的方法。

Exoskeletons are wearable devices that support or augment users' physical abilities. Previous studies indicate that they reduce the physical demands of repetitive tasks such as those involving heavy material handling, work performed with arms elevated, and the use of heavy tools. However, there have been concerns about exoskeletons hindering movement and reducing its precision. To this end, the current study investigated how proprioception enables people to point to targets in a blindfolded, repetitive pointing task, and their ability to recalibrate their pointing movement based on visual feedback during an intervening calibration phase, both with and without an arm-support exoskeleton. On each trial, participants were instructed to follow a 40 BPM metronome to point six times alternating between two target points placed either on a vertical or horizontal line. Within a trial, each pointing movement alternated between flexion and extension. Results indicate that participants' average pointing error increased by 4% when they wore an exoskeleton, compared to when they did not. The average pointing error was 12% lower when the target points were aligned vertically as compared to horizontally. It was also observed that the average pointing error was 14% lower during flexion as compared to extension movement. Surprisingly, accuracy did not improve in the post-test as compared to the pre-test phase, likely due to accuracy being high from the beginning. Participants' movement dynamics were analyzed using Recurrence Quantification Analysis. It was found that movements were less deterministic (1% reduction in percentage of determinism) and less stable (13.6% reduction in average diagonal line length on the recurrence plot) when they wore the exoskeleton as compared to when they did not. These results have implications on the design of arm-support exoskeletons and for facilitating their integration into the natural motor synergies in humans.

外骨骼是一种可穿戴设备,可支持或增强使用者的体能。以往的研究表明,外骨骼可以减少重复性工作的体力需求,例如涉及重型材料搬运、抬高手臂工作和使用重型工具的工作。不过,人们也担心外骨骼会阻碍运动并降低运动的精确度。为此,本研究调查了本体感觉如何使人们在蒙眼重复指向任务中指向目标,以及他们在使用和不使用手臂支撑外骨骼的情况下,在中间校准阶段根据视觉反馈重新校准指向动作的能力。在每次试验中,受试者都要按照 40 BPM 节拍器的指示在垂直线或水平线上的两个目标点之间交替指点六次。在一次试验中,每次指向动作都在屈伸之间交替进行。结果表明,与不穿戴外骨骼时相比,参与者穿戴外骨骼时的平均指向误差增加了 4%。当目标点垂直排列时,平均指向误差比水平排列时低 12%。另外还观察到,与伸展运动相比,屈曲运动时的平均指向误差降低了 14%。令人惊讶的是,与测试前相比,测试后阶段的准确率并没有提高,这可能是由于准确率从一开始就很高。我们使用复现定量分析法对参与者的运动动态进行了分析。结果发现,与未穿戴外骨骼时相比,穿戴外骨骼时的动作确定性较低(确定性百分比降低了 1%),稳定性较低(复现图上的平均对角线长度降低了 13.6%)。这些结果对手臂支撑外骨骼的设计以及促进外骨骼与人类自然运动协同的整合具有重要意义。

Perception of task goal influences motor performance and coordination. In bimanual actions, it is unclear how one's perception of task goals influences bimanual coordination and performance in individuals with unilateral stroke. We characterized inter-limb coordination differences in individuals with chronic right- and left-hemisphere damaged (RCVA: n = 24, LCVA: n = 24) stroke and age-matched neurotypical controls (n = 24) as they completed bimanual reaching tasks under distinct goal conditions. In the dual-goal condition, participants reached to move two virtual bricks (cursors) assigned to each hand toward independent targets. In the common-goal condition, they moved a central common virtual brick representing both hands to a single, central target. Spatial and temporal coordination (cross-correlation coefficients of hand velocity and their time-lag), the redundant axis deviations (the hand deviations in the axis orthogonal to the axis along the cursor-target direction), and the contribution ratio of the paretic hand were measured. Compared to the dual-goal condition, reaching actions to the common-goal demonstrated better spatial bimanual coordination in all three participant groups. Temporal coordination was better during common-goal than dual-goal actions only for the LCVA group. Additionally, and novel to this field, sex, as a biological variable, differently influenced movement time and redundant axis deviation in participants with stroke under the common-goal condition. Specifically, female stroke survivors showed larger movements in the redundant axes and, consequently, longer movement times, which was more prominent in the LCVA group. Our results indicate that perception of task goals influences bimanual coordination, with common goal improving spatial coordination in neurotypical individuals and individuals with unilateral stroke and providing additional advantage for temporal coordination in those with LCVA. Sex influences bimanual performance in stroke survivors and needs to be considered in future investigations.

任务目标的感知影响运动表现和协调。在双臂动作中,单侧中风患者对任务目标的感知如何影响双臂协调和表现尚不清楚。我们研究了慢性左右半球受损中风患者(RCVA:n = 24,LCVA:n = 24)和年龄匹配的神经正常对照组(n = 24)在不同目标条件下完成双臂伸展任务时的肢间协调差异。在双目标条件下,参与者伸手将分配给每只手的两个虚拟砖块(光标)移向独立的目标。在共同目标条件下,他们将代表双手的中央共同虚拟砖块移向一个中央目标。对空间和时间协调性(手部速度的交叉相关系数及其时滞)、冗余轴偏差(手部在与光标-目标方向的轴正交的轴上的偏差)以及瘫痪手的贡献率进行了测量。与双目标条件相比,所有三组参与者的共同目标伸手动作都表现出更好的空间双臂协调性。只有低视力组在做共同目标动作时的时间协调性优于双重目标动作。此外,性别作为一个生物变量,在共同目标条件下对中风参与者的运动时间和冗余轴偏差产生了不同的影响,这也是本领域的新发现。具体来说,女性中风幸存者的冗余轴运动幅度更大,因此运动时间更长,这在 LCVA 组中更为突出。我们的研究结果表明,对任务目标的感知会影响双臂协调性,共同目标会改善神经畸形个体和单侧中风个体的空间协调性,并为 LCVA 患者的时间协调性提供额外优势。性别会影响中风幸存者的双臂协调能力,这需要在未来的研究中加以考虑。

Predictive simulation of human motion could provide insight into optimal techniques. In repetitive or long-duration tasks, these simulations must predict fatigue-induced adaptation. However, most studies minimize cost function terms related to actuator activations, assuming it minimizes fatigue. An additional modeling layer is needed to consider the previous use of muscles to reveal adaptive strategies to the decreased force production capability. Here, we propose interfacing Xia's three-compartment fatigue dynamics model with rigid-body dynamics. A stabilization invariant was added to Xia's model. We simulated the maximum repetition of dumbbell biceps curls as an optimal control problem (OCP) using direct multiple shooting. We explored three cost functions (minimizing torque, fatigue, or both) and two OCP formulations (full-horizon and sliding-horizon approaches). We adapted Xia's model by adding a stabilization invariant coefficients S=105 for direct multiple shooting. Sliding-horizon OCPs achieved 20 to 21 repetitions. The kinematic strategy slowly deviated from a plausible dumbbell lifting task to a swinging strategy as fatigue onset increasingly compromised the humerus to remain vertical. In full-horizon OCPs, the latter kinematic strategy was used over the whole motion, resulting in 32 repetitions. We showed that sliding-horizon OCPs revealed a reactive strategy to fatigue when only torque was included in the cost function, whereas an anticipatory strategy was revealed when the fatigue term was included in the cost function. Overall, the proposed approach has the potential to be a valuable tool in optimizing performance and helping reduce fatigue-related injuries in a variety of fields.

对人体运动的预测性模拟可以为最佳技术提供洞察力。在重复或长时间的任务中,这些模拟必须预测疲劳引起的适应。然而,大多数研究都将与致动器激活相关的成本函数项最小化,认为这样可以将疲劳最小化。我们需要一个额外的建模层来考虑肌肉之前的使用情况,以揭示对力量产生能力下降的适应策略。在此,我们建议将 Xia 的三腔疲劳动力学模型与刚体动力学模型进行对接。我们在夏的模型中加入了稳定不变量。我们将哑铃二头肌弯举的最大重复次数模拟为一个最优控制问题(OCP),采用直接多重射击法。我们探索了三种成本函数(扭矩最小化、疲劳最小化或两者兼有)和两种 OCP 方案(全地平线和滑动地平线方法)。我们对 Xia 的模型进行了改编,为直接多次射击添加了稳定不变系数 S=105。滑动地平线 OCP 实现了 20 到 21 次重复。随着疲劳的加剧,肱骨越来越难以保持垂直,运动策略慢慢从合理的哑铃举起任务偏离为摆动策略。在全地平线 OCP 中,后一种运动策略被用于整个动作,结果重复了 32 次。我们发现,当成本函数中只包含扭矩时,滑动地平线 OCP 显示出一种对疲劳的反应策略,而当成本函数中包含疲劳项时,则显示出一种预期策略。总之,所提出的方法有可能成为优化性能的重要工具,并有助于减少各种领域中与疲劳相关的伤害。
