人體神經力學

This course focuses on interactions of the nervous and musculoskeletal systems during human movement. Topics will include neuromechanical control of movement, computer simulations of neuromechanical systems, neurorehabilitation, and biorobotics. The instructor will present background material on topics each week in a lecture/open discussion format. Students will present and discuss key research papers related to the topics. The course will also include hands-on demonstration and use of experimental methods such as force platforms, electromyography, and computer simulations. Electronic copies of papers (pdf files) for weekly discussion are accessible on the course website (http://e3.nctu.edu.tw).

Applied Mechanics, Automatic Control

We will extensively use NCTU New E3 platform for sharing course materials.

Homework: There will be homework sets throughout the semester. Homework is due at the beginning of class on the date listed in the homework assignment. Late homework will not be accepted. Quizzes: Several quizzes will be given throughtout the semester. Project: In the term project, students will use the knowledge learned from this course to conduct a small research study, and prepare a 10-page research report and a presentation on a scheduled date. Format: The instructor will lecture the fundamental material. In a few classes, students will be assigned reading of journal papers for discussion in the following classes. Review of homework and preview of exams will be given when necessary. Grading (subject to change): Homwork (including individual presentation): 30% Class/Lab participation and discussions: 20% Quizzes: 30% Project (proposal, progress, final presentation and report): 20%
