Investigating changes in achilles tendon load during walking with exosuit assistance

This abstract has open access
Abstract Summary
We investigated the use of shear wave tensiometry to detect modulation of Achilles tendon loading induced via exosuit assistance. Tendon shear wave speed, and hence tendon loading, exhibited systematic variations with walking speed, load carriage, and the timing of active ankle exosuit assistance.
