CHECK THESE SAMPLES OF Neural Bases of Human Movement: How Muscle Movements Occur
Perturbed stance:The quiet stance that is disturbed by an external perturbation, such as a push at the sternum or a sudden shift of the support surface (a ''dynamic'' condition)During the quiet stance position, the centre of mass (COM) is stabilized over a base of support by using low-level muscular movements and the body sways around the point of support like an inverted pendulum (Johansson R, Magnusson M, Akesson M.... This paper "Human Postural Sway" explores whether anterior-posterior (AP) sway of the centre of pressure (COP) can be linearly applied to predict the AP response of a weak posterior directed mechanical perturbation (tug or pull at the waist) in a healthy subject and effects of muscle fatigue on the postural control system....
