Title
Model The Leg Cycling Movement With Neural Oscillator
Abstract
In this paper a neuro-musculo-skeletal system for human leg cycling movements is constructed based on the neural oscillator theory. Neural oscillator is derived from the center pattern generator (CPG) existed in the biological nervous system.This model, which consists of nine muscles and three skeletons, is developed from the combination of neuroscience and biomechanics' perspective. A modified recurrent neural oscillator is utilized for the muscle control. Each oscillator consists of two tonically stimulated neurons with mutual inhibition and self inhibition, in that one neuron drives the flexor while the other drives the extensor. Aceordingly, the sensory feedback is incorporated to entrain the oscillator in order to enhance the system robustness.From the computer simulation, we can get a framework about the Junctional role of nervous system in the motor control. This model can also provide feasible simulation study for the biomedical application such as functional electrical stimulation (FES) cycling in the future work.
