Design of a Semi-Robotic Knee Arthroscopy Support System Utilizing a Novel Ball Joint Braking Mechanism

open access: yesMachines
To alleviate the poor ergonomics which surgeons suffer during knee arthroscopy, a semi-robotic device with a novel ball joint braking mechanism was designed for intra-operative assistance. A slit ball joint assembly was developed to transmit the clamping

Comparison of Biomechanical Factors among Straight, Curve and Knuckle Kicking Motions in Soccer

open access: yesProceedings, 2020
The rotation of a soccer ball is affected by several factors, such as impact point and foot posture, which are generated by joint torque in the lower limb.

Direct Metal Deposition of Graphene–Ti28Nb35.4Zr Matrix Composites With Enhanced Mechanical, Corrosion, and Biocompatibility Properties for Bone Implants

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Graphene nanoplatelet (0.1 wt.%) reinforcement significantly enhances the performance of β Ti‐28Nb‐35.4Zr alloy. Grain refinement, reduced water contact angle, and improved surface characteristics promote osteoblast adhesion and complete surface coverage after 7 days.

Role of Intrinsic Electron Trapping in Negative Charging of Amorphous Alumina

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Intrinsic electron trapping in amorphous Al2O3 is examined using hybrid‐DFT models spanning a wide density range. Both spontaneous and thermally activated trapping are identified, with pronounced spontaneous localization in dense, partly crystallized structures.

Optimizing simulation for lower limb motion during throwing in water polo

open access: yesMechanical Engineering Journal, 2015
The objective of this study was to clarify the optimized lower limb motion during throwing in water polo by the simulation. The flexion/extension angles of the hip joint around the ball release were optimized in order to maximize the ball velocity, which

Ball joints for Marker-less human Motion Capture [PDF]

open access: yes2009 Workshop on Applications of Computer Vision (WACV), 2009
This work presents an approach for the modeling and numerical optimization of ball joints within a Marker-less Motion Capture (MoCap) framework. In skeleton based approaches, kinematic chains are commonly used to model 1 DoF revolute joints. A 3 DoF joint (e.g. a shoulder or hip) is consequently modeled by concatenating three consecutive 1 DoF revolute

Multimodal Perception and Machine Learning‐Empowered Human Machine Interfaces With Double‐Network Hydrogel Fibers

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work develops polyacrylamide‐alginate (PAM‐Alg) double‐network hydrogel fibers for multimodal perception and intelligent human‐machine interfaces. The covalent‐ionic network provides high strength, toughness, and stable conductivity. Easily woven into wearables and integrated with soft robots, the fibers enable object and temperature recognitions ...
