Force Control with A Muscle-Activated Endoskeleton

The advantages and challenges of producing and controlling force with a mechanism like the human skeleton driven by actuators like mammalian muscles are considered. Some counter-intuitive subtleties of musculo-skeletal biomechanics are discovered: despite the energetic cost of isometric muscle activ...
