Description of the different conditions examined in this paper.

NTF Neutral, Flexional torque Exoskeleton applies a flexion torque while the arm is posed at neutral without muscle contraction or arm movement
ECF Extensor muscles Contracted, Flexional torque Exoskeleton generates a flexion torque while the Extensor muscles are isometrically contracted
FCF Flexor muscles Contracted, Flexional torque Exoskeleton generates a flexion torque while the Flexor muscles are isometrically contracted
EMF Extensional Movement, Flexional torque Exoskeleton generates a flexion torque while the arm is moving in the extensional direction
FMF Flexional Movement, Flexional torque Exoskeleton generates a flexion torque while the arm is moving in the flexional direction
NTE Neutral, Extensional torque Exoskeleton generates an extension torque while the arm is posed without muscle contraction or arm movement
ECE Extensor muscles Contracted, Extensional torque Exoskeleton generates an extension torque while the Extensor muscles are isometrically contracted
FCE Flexor muscles Contracted, Extensional torque Exoskeleton generates an extension torque while the Flexor muscles are isometrically contracted
EME Extensional Movement, Extensional torque Exoskeleton generates an extension torque while the arm is moving in the extensional direction
FME Flexional Movement, Extensional torque Exoskeleton generates an extension torque while the arm is moving in the flexional direction
