Abstract:
The extraction of the Time-to-boundary function (TtB) from CoP data in upright stance trials has recently gained much attention. In this contribution, some parameters extracted from TtB in unperturbed upright stance trials were analysed in terms of variability with respect to different hypothesized stability limits. In particular, nonlinear stability factors were analyzed as a function of the different values for the boundary limits through which TtB is calculated. A sample population of 5 healthy young adults underwent upright stance trials in different conditions. The amplitude nonlinear stability factors showed a strong dependency with the boundary limits, which on the contrary did not affect the rhythmical nonlinear stability factors.

Stability
The stability of an LTI system is determined by the roots of its characteristic equation, known as poles. A system is stable if it produces a bounded...
Pole and System Stability
Simple poles are unique roots of the denominator polynomial. Each simple pole corresponds to a distinct solution to the system's characteristic equation, typically resulting in exponential decay terms in the system's response.
BIBO stability of continuous and discrete -time systems
To determine the BIBO stability, the convolution integral is utilized when a bounded continuous-time input is applied to a Linear Time-Invariant (LTI) system.
