Characterizing the limits of human stability during motion: perturbative experiment validates a model-based approach for the Sit-to-Stand task

Falls affect a growing number of the population each year. Clinical methods to assess fall risk usually evaluate the performance of specific motions such as balancing or Sit-to-Stand. Unfortunately, these techniques have been shown to have poor predictive power, and are unable to identify the portio...
