This study focuses on replicating the muscu-loskeletal system of human arms for mimicking its movement. Muscle redundancy is critical for regulating the mechanical impedance of arms and legs. However, when implementing muscle redundancy on robots, making an ill-posed problem that cannot determine the muscle forces uniquely. In this paper, first, a method for controlling end-point stiffness in the ...
