Quantifying Dynamic Stability of Musculoskeletal Systems using Lyapunov Exponents

Increased attention has been paid in recent years to the means in which the body maintains stability and the subtleties of the neurocontroller. Variability of kinematic data has been used as a measure of stability but these analyses are not appropriate for quantifying stability of dynamic systems....
