Quantitative evaluation concerning principal gait locomotion pattern of a trans-femoral amputee with a prosthetic limb based on the intersegmental coordination

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2015
In human gait locomotion analysis, which is one useful method for efficient physical rehabilitation to define various quantitative evaluation indices, ground reaction force, joint angle and joint loads are measured during gait.

The lateral joint line opening: a radiographic indicative parameter for high grade varus knees

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Orthopaedics, 2022
Purpose It is usually assumed that the severity of varus osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee is correlated with the axis deviation of the limb. Despite this, there is currently no clear radiographic definition to define a so‐called ‘high degree’ varus knee ...

Joint received signal strength, angle-of-arrival, and time-of-flight positioning [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
This paper presents a software positioning framework that is able to jointly use measured values of three parameters: the received signal strength, the angle-of-arrival, and the time-of-flight of the wireless signals.

Event-based control system on FPGA applied to the pencil balancer robotic platform [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
An event-based motor controller design is presented. The system is designed to solve the classic inverted pendulum problem by using a robotic platform and a totally neuro-inspired event-based mechanism.

Reduction of Oxide Inclusions During the High‐Frequency Welding of Steel via a Nonthermal Ar/H2 Plasma Jet

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
High‐frequency (HF) welding of steel is limited by oxide inclusions that degrade weld quality. This study demonstrates, for the first time, the integration of a nonthermal Ar/H2 dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma jet into HF welding. Local plasma treatment provides effective shielding and in‐situ oxide reduction, resulting in markedly fewer and ...

Towards Wearable Comprehensive Capture and Analysis of Skeletal Muscle Activity during Human Locomotion

open access: yesSensors, 2019
Background: Motion capture and analyzing systems are essential for understanding locomotion. However, the existing devices are too cumbersome and can be used indoors only.

Kinematic functions for the 7 DOF robotics research arm [PDF]

open access: yes
The Robotics Research Model K-1207 manipulator is a redundant 7R serial link arm with offsets at all joints. To uniquely determine joint angles for a given end-effector configuration, the redundancy is parameterized by a scalar variable which corresponds

The effects of knee joint angle on neuromuscular activity during electrostimulation in healthy older adults [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Introduction Electrostimulation devices stimulate the common peroneal nerve, producing a calf muscle-pump action to promote venous circulation. Whether knee joint angle influences calf neuromuscular activity remains unclear. Our aim was to determine the

Piezoresistive Monitoring of Carbon Nanomaterial‐Reinforced Epoxy Composites Under Cyclic and Fatigue Loading: A Review

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Carbon nanomaterial‐reinforced epoxy composites exhibit pronounced piezoresistive behavior, enabling intrinsic damage sensing under cyclic and fatigue loading. This review critically compares carbon nanotube and graphene systems, correlating filler content, percolation threshold, and gauge factor with sensing stability and damage evolution.

The Acute Influence of Running-Induced Fatigue on the Performance and Biomechanics of a Countermovement Jump

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Lower limb kinematics and kinetics during the landing phase of jumping might change because of localized muscle fatigue. This study aimed to investigate the acute influence of running-induced fatigue on the performance and lower limb kinematics and ...
