What is The Joint Impedance?
The Automatic Capability of the System to Resist an Applied Load before Voluntary Intervention Takes Place (Winters et al. 1988)
Stiffness is defined as the ratio of change in force or torque to change in length or angle
Viscosity is defined as the ratio of change in force or torque to change in velocity or angular velocity

Which Parameters Contribute to the Joint Impedance?
Musculoskeletal Geometry has a Great Impact on Joint Impedance

Mussa-Ivaldi et al. 1985
Roughly Speaking, The Axis of Maximum stiffness is a Line that Connect The Hand to a Point between Shoulder and Half Way Through the Elbow

What is Impedance Control?
The Idea that the Nervous System Can Modify the Mechanical Behavior of the Neuromuscular Periphery, Known as Impedance Control Theory (Hogan 1985)
Empirical Evidence:
It was Shown That Subject Increase the Level of Co-Contraction in Proportion to The Level of Destabilizing Load (Milner & Cloutier 1998)
During Two-Joints Movement, It was Shown That The Subject Learn To Stabilize Unstable Dynamics Using Selective Control of Impedance Geometry. (Burdet et al. 2001)

1: Learning to Control Arm Stiffness under Static Conditions
Aim
To Examine The Idea That Impedance Control Involves a Process of Learning That is Acquired Over Time and Permits the Voluntary Control of The Pattern of Stiffness at The Hand.
Prediction
We Predicted That The Subjects Can Voluntarily Control Their Hand Impedance Geometry and With Practice They Can Improve Their Ability of Impedance Control

Experimental StudyExperimental Study
Subjects trained for three successive days to resist one of three loads
single axis loads in lateral direction.
single axis loads in forward/backward direction.
isotropic loads in eight directions about a circle.
Unpredictable servo-position controlled perturbations used to assess stiffness.
1919
Conclusion 1Conclusion 1 Stiffness Ellipse Modified With Learning in an Adaptive Fashion, Change in Orientation Matches The Direction of Load.
Modeling Studies Suggest Separate Commands for Shoulder and Elbow Co-Contraction.
Even with Practice, Impedance Change in Statics is Relatively Small in Magnitude. Simulations Suggest This is at a Limit Regardless of Level of Co-Contraction.
Clockwise Rotation of Stiffness Ellipse Greater Than Anti-Clockwise Rotation. Same Asymmetry in Simulations. Asymmetry Due to Geometry Since Simulated Commands Equate for Impedance of Shoulder and Elbow Muscles.

2: Transfer and Durability of Acquired Patterns of Human Arm Stiffness
Aims
To Explore Whether Subjects Could Transfer Stiffness Learning to Other Parts of The Workspace And Also The Specific Pattern of Generalization as a Means to Identify The Coordinate System in Which The Learning Occurs.
To Evaluated The Durability of Stiffness Training. Is The Effect of Learning Persist Well beyond The Time of Initial Learning?

Experimental StudyExperimental Study The Tests Conducted With The Arm Stationary.
In Experiment 1 Subjects Were Trained at The Left And Transfer Test Was Conducted at The Right. The Experiment Take Place in One Day.
In Experiment 2 Subjects Were Tested for Three Consecutive Days at The Left. The Direction of The Force Application at The Third Day Was Perpendicular to The Last Two days.
After The Training Phase Subjects Were Randomly Assigned to One of Two Groups.
One Group of Subjects Experienced Similar Torque at The Left And Right (Group J) While for The Other Group The Experienced Force at The Hand Was Similar (Group H).
2626
Conclusion 2Conclusion 2 Experiment 1:
Both Groups of Subjects in The Training Phase of The Experiment Learned Successfully to Modify The Orientation of The stiffness Ellipse.
Transfer of Stiffness Control Was Observed only When The Direction of Load Resulted in Torques That Were Similar to Those Experienced During Training..
Experiment 2:
Subjects in The First Two Days of Experiment Learned to Modify The Orientation of The stiffness Ellipse. The Change in Stiffness Ellipse Orientation Matched The Direction of Force Application
Higher Stiffness Ellipse Size, Longer Time Outside The Target as Well as The Orientation of The Stiffness Ellipse on The Third Days of Experiment Shows That The Stiffness Learning Result in Durable Changes in Neural Signals Underpinning Co-Contraction of Muscles.

3: The Role of Phasic Muscle Activity on Hand Stiffness during Reaching Movements
Aims
To Develop a New Method for Stiffness Estimation During Reaching Movements.
To Explore The Effect of Phasic Muscle Activity On Hand Stiffness During Reaching Movements By Comparing The Static Stiffness with The Stiffness During Movements.
2929
Experimental StudyExperimental Study
The Tests Were Conducted in Three Consecutive days
The Stiffness Ellipses Were Estimated in Three Different Conditions: Static, Down to Up and Left to Right Reaching Movements.
The Average of Last Eighty Trials During Reaching Movements and AR Model of Trial By Trial Variability Were Used as a Method for Prediction of Ongoing Movements.

Material and Method
The Result of Position Servo Control in Both X and Y Direction For Reaching Movement in Y Direction.

Conclusion 3
The Result Shows Considerable Counter Clockwise Rotation of Stiffness Ellipse in Compare to The Static Stiffness Ellipse During Down to Up Reaching Movements.
The Rotation of Stiffness Ellipse During Lateral Reaching Movement Wasn’t Statistically Reliable.
Impedance Modification During Reaching Movements in Unstable Environments May Actually Have Limitations That Are Comparable to Those Observed Under Static Conditions. The Large Empirical Difference May be Due Simply to Phasic Muscle Activity During Movement.

Conclusion 4
To do a Skilled Movement, We Need a Precise Model of Environmental Dynamics Also The Optimal Impedance of Participating Joints are Necessary as well.
The Empirical Evidence Shows that The Subject’s Performance Decay With The Distance from The Location Where The Adaptation Take place. Our Simulation Argue That The Unavailability of Optimal Impedance in Neighboring Location is The Reason for The Above Phenomena.
Adaptation to The Stable And Unstable Dynamics Have Some Fundamental Deference. While The Adaptation to Stable Dynamics Seems to Happen Mostly in Model Based Controller, Adaptation to The Unstable Dynamics Achieved By Impedance Control.
