The identification of a comprehensive model of dynamic joint stiffness must deal with its time-varying and nonlinear behavior. Our laboratory has developed two new methods designed to deal with these problems. The temporal expansion (TE) method assumes that the system parameters vary explicitly with time and identifies these variations as functions of time. The nonlinear parameter varying (NPV) method assumes that the parameters vary with some known scheduling variable (SV), which may vary with time, and identifies how these parameters vary with the SV. This thesis compares the performance of the two methods when applied to data generated by simulating a realistic model of ankle dynamic joint stiffness. The results showed that both methods ...
