EMG-based estimation of muscular efforts exerted during human movements

Methode EMG-assistee pour l’estimation des efforts musculaires developpes au cours du mouvement humainLa quantification des efforts musculaires peut etre d’une importance considerable dans les differents domaines de la biomecanique. Cependant, l’estimation des moments musculaires agoniste et antagoniste ou de la force developpee par chaque muscle au cours d’un mouvement necessite de resoudre le probleme de la redondance musculaire. Cet article fait la synthese des differentes etapes du developpement d’une methode « EMG-assistee » permettant de quantifier les moments et les tensions musculaires lors de contractions isometriques ou de tâches dynamiques, en presence ou non de fatigue. En associant de maniere appropriee l’optimisation numerique et l’utilisation de donnees electromyographiques, la methode proposee ameliore la qualite de l’estimation de ces efforts musculaires. Cette approche pourra trouver de nombreuses applications, particulierement en biomecanique du sport.
