In-Depth Information
For instance, a performance measure for the biosystem has been identified as
the sum of squares of all joint torques with coefficients p as in Equation (5.16) .

The parameters p are determined by solving the inner optimization problem as
defined in Equation (5.18) so that the exact performance measure can be identified.

5.6 Constraints
Constraints are formulated based on the available information
about the biosys-
tem. In general, two types of constraints are included in this set: (i) boundary con-
ditions, and (ii) state response at some time points, q ðt j Þ;
ϒ
, obtained from
either experiments or observations. In addition, boundary conditions consist of
time boundary, q t j , t j A Γ
t j A Ω
, where X
represents the global Cartesian coordinates that capture the geometrical environ-
ment for the biosystem. For example, given initial and final postures, a walking
task is performed to predict the walking motion between the two postures. The
initial and final postures are the time boundaries, and the ground is formulated as
a geometrical boundary. However, there are many options for state response con-
straints based on available information about the walking motion, such as transi-
tion posture between single support and double support phases, knee flexion
, and geometrical boundary, X ð q t j Þ , t j A Ω , Γ
