About
Victor H. Duenas is a leading researcher in rehabilitation robotics and neuromuscular control, specializing in functional electrical stimulation (FES) and hybrid exoskeletons for individuals with neurological conditions such as spinal cord injury, stroke, and traumatic brain injury. His work focuses on developing closed-loop control algorithms that integrate FES with robotic assistance to restore mobility and improve rehabilitation outcomes. Duenas’s most cited paper (34 citations) introduces a novel approach to controlling cadence and admittance in motorized FES cycling, enabling personalized therapy for impaired riders. He has also pioneered adaptive control strategies for FES cycling in stroke survivors (16 citations) and hybrid lower-limb exoskeletons for treadmill walking (15 citations), demonstrating significant impact in human–robot interaction. His notable achievements include designing challenge-based rehabilitation robots that adjust motor assistance to compensate for muscle fatigue, as seen in his work on biceps curls and admittance trajectory tracking. With over 120 total citations, Duenas’s contributions advance the field of rehabilitative engineering, offering practical solutions that enhance motor recovery and quality of life for individuals with movement impairments.
