A non-invasive device to measure mechanical interaction between tongue, palate and teeth during speech production [PDF]
This paper describes an original experimental procedure to measure the mechanical interaction between the tongue and teeth and palate during speech production. It consists in using edentulous people as subjects and to insert pressure sensors in the structure of their complete dental prosthesis.

Total removal of the buccal flange in maxillary prosthetic preparation: a necessity?: case report
Fixed implant-supported complete maxillary dentures aim to rehabilitate aesthetic, phonetic, and functional aspects of edentulous arches. A previous prosthetic preparation without a flange in the anterior sector makes it possible to evaluate the labial ...

Sensor Fusion for Predictive Control of Human-Prosthesis-Environment Dynamics in Assistive Walking: A Survey [PDF]
This survey paper concerns Sensor Fusion for Predictive Control of Human-Prosthesis-Environment Dynamics in Assistive Walking. The powered lower limb prosthesis can imitate the human limb motion and help amputees to recover the walking ability, but it is still a challenge for amputees to walk in complex environments with the powered prosthesis ...

Viscoelasticity Estimation of Sports Prosthesis by Energy-minimizing Inverse Kinematics and Its Validation by Forward Dynamics [PDF]
In this study, we present a method for estimating the viscoelasticity of a leaf-spring sports prosthesis using advanced energy minimizing inverse kinematics based on the Piece-wise Constant Strain (PCS) model to reconstruct the three-dimensional dynamic behavior.
