Title
Upper Limb Muscle Force Estimation During Table Tennis Strokes
Abstract
Based on an EMG-adjusted method in neuromusculoskeletal model, this study aims to predict the individual muscle force in shoulder and elbow during table tennis strokes. Muscle force estimation makes muscle activation analysis more physiological in sports. Twenty subjects, divided into professional group and amateur group, were adopted in this study. They were asked to do a basic stoke motion: backhand block. Surface electromyography (sEMG) of nine muscles was recorded, as well as the motion data collected by three inertial sensors. A Hill-type musculotendon model was then adopted to estimate individual muscle force by combining adjusted sEMG and motion data. The result shows that the method can estimate individual muscle force during table tennis strokes accurately, and the two groups show significant difference in muscle force of shoulders and elbows.
