A Non-Linear Control Method to Compensate for Muscle Fatigue during Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation

Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) is a promising technique to artificially activate muscles as a means to potentially restore the capability to perform functional tasks in persons with neurological disorders. A pervasive problem with NMES is that overstimulation of the muscle (among other...
