16. High density EMG based estimation of lower limb muscle characteristics using feature extraction
University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)Abstract : Electromyography (EMG) is a common tool in electrical muscle activity measurement and can be used in multiple areas of clinical and biomedical applications, mainly in identifying neuromuscular diseases, analyzing movement or in human machine interfaces. Traditionally a pair of electrodes were used to measure the signals, but in recent years the use of high density surface EMG (HD-sEMG) gained more popularity as it can sample myoelectric activities from multiple electrodes in an array on a single muscle and provide more information.

17. A comparative study to explore the advantages of passive exoskeletons by monitoring the muscle activity of workers
University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Avdelningen för elektroteknik, matematik och naturvetenskapAbstract : Manufacturing and construction workers undertake physically strenuous activities increasing the risk of health problems, disability, and sick leave, leading to lower job attractiveness and job candidate scarcity. In the EU, up to 44 million workers are affected by workplace-related musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), representing a total annual cost of more than €240 billion. READ MORE

19. Comparison of high density and bipolar surface EMG for ankle joint kinetics using machine learning
University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)Abstract : The relationship between sEMG signals and muscle force, and associated joint torque, is an object of study for clinical applications such as rehabilitation robotics and commercial applications as wearable motion control devices. The information type and quality obtained by sEMG can impact the classification and prediction accuracy of ankle joint torque. READ MORE

20. The loaded barbell squat: Muscle activation with the barbell in a free compared to a fixed vertical movement path in healthy athletes
University essay from Umeå universitet/Avdelningen för fysioterapiAbstract : Introduction: Loaded barbell squat is one of the most popular exercises among athletes and can be performed in many different ways to achieve different goals. The difference in muscle activation between a free and afixed vertical movement path (using Smith machine) has not been examined to a particularly large extent. READ MORE
