Understanding the operating conditions of rolling bearings is the basis for safe operation and predictive maintenance to save resources and costs. However, in many cases it is difficult to implement the necessary sensors in rolling bearings, e.g. due to the requirement of space neutrality. In collab...

In this systematic literature research we identified different approaches to simulate postural control. The different approaches are discussed regarding their applied biomechanical models, sensory representation, sensory integration, and control methods in standing and gait simulations. For postural...
