A simulation-based study on a clutch-spring mechanism reducing human walking metabolic cost

© 2018 Int. J. Mech. Eng. Rob. Res. Reducing metabolic cost of walking has long been a challenge for exoskeleton researchers. A recent break-through reported a passive exoskeleton that yielded signifi-cant energy saving with a clutch-spring mechanism working in parallel with calf muscles. In this s...
