  1. 1. Multi-Parameter Modelling of Surface Electromyography Data

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Ahmad Alosta; Josef Djärf; [2024]
    Keywords : Surface electromyography; modelling; Python; sEMG; decomposition; neuroengineering; motor unit; muscle; simulation; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Ytelektromyografi (sEMG) mäter skelettmuskelfunktionen genom att registrera muskelaktivitet från hudens yta. Tekniken kan användas för att diagnostisera neuromuskulära sjukdomar och som ett hjälpmedel vid rehabilitering, biomedicinsk forskning och för interaktion mellan människa och dator. READ MORE

  3. 2. Exploring the genetic cause of myotonic dystrophy in horses

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Breeding and Genetics

    Author : Thomas Simon; [2023]
    Keywords : genetics; bioinformatics; myotonic dystrophy; horses; variant analysis;

    Abstract : Myotonic Dystrophy (MD) is an inherited neuromuscular disorder that leads to a wide range of clinical signs including stiffness, abnormal muscle relaxation, and muscle atrophy or hypertrophy. Affected muscles develop a prolonged contracture in response to percussion of the muscle and show waxing and waning complex repetitive discharges in electromyography (EMG). READ MORE

  4. 3. Development of a Mobile Phone Application for Measuring Muscle Shaking (tremor) in Order to Simplify Medical Diagnostics

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Kristoffer Gunnarsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Android application; Medical diagnostics; Accelerometer; Graphical user interface; Frequency analysis; Androidapplikation; Medicinsk diagnostisering; Accelerometer; Grafiskt användargränssnitt; Frekvensanalys;

    Abstract : At the moment, there is no quick and easy method to measure muscle shaking (tremor) reliably. In order to avoid long waiting times for an Electromyography (EMG) investigation, this thesis aims to create an Android smartphone application capable of measuring muscle tremor at a moment’s notice.

  6. 5. PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF EXOSKELETONS WHILE PERFORMING DIFFERENT TASKS OF WORKERS

    University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Elektronik

    Author : Muhammad Umer Sami; [2023]
    Keywords : Exoskeleton; Lower-back-muscle; Electromyography; SuitX; BackX;

    Abstract : Lifting weights, moving large, heavy objects, or maintaining same posture for extended periods of time exposes workers, mostly in the industrial sector, to pressure on their lower backs, which can have a significant negative impact and result in a variety of musculoskeletal problems and discomfort. The use of an exoskeleton can help to protect workers against lower back injuries of this kind. READ MORE
