Abstract :
Tibialis anterior (TA) muscle´s EMG during standing-up was investigated for comparison with the computer generated stimulation data. Experimental results have shown that the initial posture significantly affects the EMG pattern of TB, also, it was found that the TA´s EMG was suppressed with the initial posture used in the computer generation of simulation data
