  1. 1. A personalized quasi-passive ankleexoskeleton using human-in-the loop optimization approaches

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Ho Ming Kong; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Passive ankle exoskeletons have been proven to successfully decrease muscle demand for walking. The movement of the user’s ankle drives a mechanical clutch and spring, which eventually stores and returns mechanical energy to the user. READ MORE

  3. 2. Ankle Torque Estimation Using HDEMG Driven CNN-LSTM Model and Data Augmentation

    University essay from KTH/Medicinteknik och hälsosystem

    Author : Haocheng Zhang; [2023]
    Keywords : data augmentation; deep learning; ankle joint torque estimation; HD-sEMG; dataökning; djupinlärning; vridmomentuppskattning av ankelleden; HD-sEMG;

    Abstract : Robotic-powered exoskeletons are increasingly used to assist patients with movement disorders in daily life and rehabilitation. Accurately estimating joint torque, especially for dynamic movement conditions using EMG, is crucial for effective assistance. READ MORE

  4. 3. Assessment of a Wearable Motion Analysis System : Predicting ground reaction forces and joint angles with IMU:s and pressure insole sensors

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Norman Mårten; [2023]
    Keywords : Ground reaction force; kinematics; pressure insoles; IMUs;

    Abstract : The analysis of human movement is important for diagnosis of as wellas planning and evaluating treatments of disorders or injuries affectingmovement. Optical motion capture combined with force plates provideaccurate measurements, but are confined to laboratory settings limiting theirpotential usefulness in clinical applications. READ MORE

  5. 4. Imaging of the MTP joint: Developing an imaging protocol optimised for damage detection and 3D modelling

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Johanna Jacobsson; [2022]
    Keywords : computed tomography; magnetic resonance imaging; cone beam computedtomography; cartilage; osteochondral lesions; metatarsal phalangeal joint; datortomografi; magnetisk resonanstomografi; kon-datortomografi; brosk; kondrala skador; metatarsalphalangen-leden;

    Abstract : Walking without pain in the toe has a significant impact on a person’s well-being. Human mobility will be impaired in osteoarthritis of the big toe, and pain will occur during walking. By replacing the cartilage or bone injury with an individualised implant, osteochondral injuries to the knee and ankle can be treated. READ MORE

  6. 5. CFD Study of An Office Room Equipped with Corner Impinging Jet Ventilation

    University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Energisystem och byggnadsteknik

    Author : Getiye Wodaje; [2022]
    Keywords : CFD in ventilaion; Thermal comfort; Impinging jet ventilation; thermally stratified flow; Corner impinging jet; Office air quality; Indoor environment; turbulent jet;

    Abstract : A CFD validation study was made using corner supplied impinging jet ventilation operating in cooling mode. The air distribution system has two equilateral triangle shaped inlets placed 80cm above the floor at the two that share a common wall. The supply air was introduced at 2.26m/s. READ MORE
