title = "Design of fuzzy logic controller for the unloading system in mechatronic device for gait reeducation",
abstract = "The article presents a structural solution and a control system of a device responsible for patient unloading during therapeutic tasks related to the walk re-education process. The device is incorporated in a complex mechatronic system which constitutes a rehabilitation device. Unlike traditional devices of this type which often operate as classic hoists, the applied system is equipped with two independent motors. One of the motors is responsible for the dynamic compensation of the patient{\textquoteright}s body weight and acts as the so-called {"}elastic series actuator{"}-a drive applied in walking machines and human-assisting robots. The other one is responsible for the operation of the winding reel. Due to the need to ensure proper cooperation between the two engines, the selection of the optimal control system of the device constitutes an interesting engineering problem. The work presents a solution using an implemented algorithm based on fuzzy logic. The selection of parameters was conducted based on numerical studies in which the walk of a patient through a step was simulated.",
