  1. 1. Simulating Professional Dance with a Biomechanical Model of a Human Body

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Avdelningen för medicinsk teknik

    Author : Sophia Cedermalm; Erik Sars; [2022]
    Keywords : Digital twin; Motion capture; OpenSim; Biomechanical modelling; Visualisation;

    Abstract : A digital twin project is launched by the Integrative Systems Biology (ISB) research team and led by Gunnar Cedersund. The digital twin project is based on biological models of physiological processes, that can interact and be tailored for a specific person. However, the digital twin can currently not analyse movements of a human body. READ MORE

  3. 2. Evaluation of 3D motion capture data from a deep neural network combined with a biomechanical model

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk teknik

    Author : Anna Rydén; Amanda Martinsson; [2021]
    Keywords : Human pose estimation; motion capture; deep neural network; CNN; MargiPose; biomechanical modelling; AnyBody modelling system;

    Abstract : Motion capture has in recent years grown in interest in many fields from both game industry to sport analysis. The need of reflective markers and expensive multi-camera systems limits the business since they are costly and time-consuming. READ MORE

  4. 3. Proteomic and biomechanical properties of human menisci related to osteoarthritis

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Kristina Gehrisch; Lykke Månsson; [2021]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis and is expected to become even more prevalent worldwide with an increasingly older and more obese population. The degenerative joint disease, causing pain, swelling and stiffness in the joints, has a complex etiology and knowledge of the pathophysiological mechanisms is still limited. READ MORE

    Keywords : Exoskeleton; Musculoskeletal Disorders; Biorobotics; Astronaut;

    Abstract : Musculoskeletal disorders, specifically low back pain, has been well documented andreported by astronauts throughout the space exploration era. Statistics from astronautmemoirs states that 52-68% of astronauts experience moderate to severe lower backpain after prolonged spaceflights. READ MORE

  6. 5. Evaluation of Exoskeleton Using XSENS System Including Scalefit

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap

    Author : Elia Mora Quiles; Diego Borrell; [2021]
    Keywords : Exoskeleton; overhead tasks; musculoskeletal disorders; ergonomic assessments; Xsens system; ScaleFit; IPS-IMMA.;

    Abstract : Although the level of automation in the automotive industry is currently high, real humans are still required for assembly tasks, for example, during overhead tasks. This type of work can cause injuries in workers in this sector, especially musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), being a cause for the inability to work in developed countries and, in turn, becoming a significant health problem.
