It is largely unknown how these mechanisms interact and contribute to balance control during sway in the frontal plane. This dissertation identifies mechanisms of frontal plane balance control using systems identification techniques including frequency-response functions, impulse-response functions, and mathematical modeling. 000000363 540__ $$fCC BY 000000363 542__ $$fIn copyright - single owner 000000363 650__ $$aFeedback$$018928 000000363 650__ $$aPosture$$024466 000000363 650__ $$aPostural Balance$$018559 000000363 650__ $$aMuscles$$022535 000000363 650__ $$aTorque$$031609 000000363 650__ $$aGait Disorders, Neurologic$$032249 000000363 6531_ $$ahuman gait 000000363 691__ $$aSchool of Medicine$$041369 000000363 692__ $$aDepartment of Science and Engineering$$041447 000000363 7001_ $$aGoodworth, Adam$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000000363 7201_ $$aPeterka, Robert$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354$$7Personal$$eAdvisor 000000363 8564_ $$956d0f886-e517-481c-8d6d-be4646e4d2a8$$s3965785$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/363/files/364_etd.pdf$$ePublic$$2a1b9ce24119010b104eaf89187f3c528$$31 000000363 905__ $$a/rest/prod/ww/72/bb/49/ww72bb49x 000000363 909CO $$ooai:digitalcollections.ohsu.edu:363$$pstudent-work 000000363 956__ $$aGet Accessible Copy$$uhttps://ohsu.libwizard.com/f/requestaccessibledocument 000000363 980__ $$aTheses and Dissertations
