Abstract:This paper proposes the conceptual design method for a hybrid-actuated lower limb exoskeleton based on energy consumption simulation. Firstly, the human-machine coupling model is established in OpenSim based on the proposed three passive assistance schemes. On this basis, the method of simulating muscle driving is used to find out the scheme that can reduce the metabolic rate the most with 3 passive springs models. Then, an active-passive cooperative control strategy is designed based on the finite state machi… Show more
