In last century many engineers and scientist applied§principal of mathematical theories to biological§subjects and thus evolved new fields like§biomechanics. A human biomechanical model which can§mimic diverse 3D physiological movements is a§challenging task. Hundreds of researchers obtained§experimental data to study and analyze human§movements. On the other hand, there are few§researchers who provided analytical models for§biological movements. This book provides new§analytical modeling schemes to biomechanical§movements, physiological motor control and combined§musculoskeletal models with neurophysiologic§controller to emulate muscle commands and joint§torques. This book discusses the details of optimal§controls with physiological cost functions to analyze§the human sit-to-stand task for healthy and stroke§patients. The biomechanical framework uses Maple and§Matlab environments for modeling, control and§simulation purposes. Major part of this work is§peer-reviewed, and holds great potential to study§task specific applications in kinesiology,§ergonomics, and rehabilitation robotics, biomedical§engineering and experimental validation of human§voluntary movements.
