Abstract :
A study of motor nerve stimulation by flat interface nerve electrodes (FINE) using a new cuff electrode design based on finite element method, genetic algorithm and computational neuroscience method is presented. The purpose of this study is to obtain optimized parameters of electrode model for higher motor nerve stimulation efficiency. In this paper, the application for the focus stimulation on target fascicle is presented
