I am a doctoral student in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at the
Technion-IIT, Haifa, Israel, under the supervision of Dr. Gideon Ishai.
My dissertation, due to be completed April 1995, is on "Control Strategies in
Human Gait".
I am interested in a post-doctoral research or any other research position.
I also received my M.Sc. (1990) from the Technion, with my thesis on
"Investigation of Gait Control Assisted by a Multi-link Model of the Locomotor
System", under the supervision of Dr. Gideon Ishai.
My work established the equations of motion of a multi-link system of
bifurcated chains. An algorithm was developed to deal with continuous
constraints (e.g., two legs on the ground) and with impulsive constraints
(e.g., the formulation of contact between foot and ground). In my M.Sc. a
computer simulation of the locomotor system was developed, represented by an
11-link model. Gait performance was tested, using two control schemes
(the "actuator approach" and the "impedance approach"), in landing on a bump
in the floor and into a depression in the floor. In my Ph.D. a computer
simulation of the locomotor system was developed represented by a 9-link
model, and a controller based on Sensory-Motor principles. The Control of the
different phases of walking was achieved by the combination of an "open loop"
controller (based on preprogrammed torque and impedance patterns) and a
"closed loop" controller (correction of global parameters related to gait
process stability, utilizing feed-forward to account for delays in the system).
I would appreciate it if, perhaps, you could pass my letter and CV on to other
researchers who may be interest. Enclosed please find a copy of my curriculum
vitae. I would be delighted to provide you with any further information you
may require.
Sincerely yours,
Danny Seltzer

real-time kinematics and Force plate measurements. The development
included programming processing of TV information: calibration,
filtration, differentiation etc.
1988-1990 I have taught courses in the Department of Mechanical Engineering
at the Technion:
Dynamics, Interactive computer graphics and Manufacturing processes.

Research pertaining to analysis and synthesis of limb's kinetics in human,
animals and robots biomechanics and control of locomotion.
Analysis : measurement of human movement; transducers for kinematics and load
measurements; sampling and processing of measured information; modeling to
