  1. 6. Wrist Angle Estimation Using Two Wearable Inertial Measurement Units

    University essay from KTH/Medicinteknik och hälsosystem

    Author : Arvin Razavi; [2023]
    Keywords : IMU wrist angle estimation; Wrist absolute angle; IMU-based human motion capture; orientation filter; Complementary filter; Kalman filter; IMU handledsvinkeluppskattning; handleds absolutvinkel; IMU-baserad mänsklig rörelsefångst; orienteringsfilter; komplementfilter; Kalman-filter;

    Abstract : Hand-intensive work is closely related to the prevalence of upper body and hand/wrist work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) in office work, manufacturing, service industries, as well as the healthcare industry. Some risk factors include vibrations, forceful exertions, heavy manual handling, repetitive motions, and prolonged nonneutral wrist postures. READ MORE

  3. 7. Estimation of respiratory frequency from Heart Rate Variability

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Daniel Ågärd; [2023]
    Keywords : time-frequency analysis; multitaper spectrogram; Optimization; signal processing; heart rate variability; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : In this master's thesis the ability to estimate the respiratory frequency from heart rate variability measurement is analyzed. The goal was to implement a solution that is easily transferable to real time. READ MORE

  4. 8. Påverkan av ett gemensamt fysiskt träningsprogram på hundägarens hälsorelaterade livskvalité och kroppskomposition hos både hundägare och hund

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Author : Nike Erlandsson; Julia Vingberger; [2023]
    Keywords : BCS; BMI; fysisk aktivitet; kroppsammansättning; hälsa; livskvalité; motivation; träningsprogram; övervikt;

    Abstract : Övervikt och fetma är ett ökande problem hos människor och hundar och ofta kan en korrelation ses mellan hundägarens och hundens hull. Gemensamma träningsprogram för hundägare och hund har visats kunna stimulera till fysisk aktivitet och därmed ett hälsosammare liv med minskad risk för en rad olika sjukdomar, en positiv effekt på lyckokänsla och välbefinnande samt minskad depression och ångest hos människan.

  5. 9. Improving Objectivity and Reliability of Observational Risk Assessment Tools by using Technical Instruments

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

    Author : Cephas Charsmar-Etor; [2023]
    Keywords : Direct measurement instruments; Observational instruments; Body segments and postures; Inertial measurement unit; Wearable sensors;

    Abstract : Ergonomic assessments to determine risks of work-related musculoskeletal disorders as well as to compare designs of work-tasks and workstations, are imperative for high sustainability and productivity in any given industry. Hence, assessment tools that can objectively and reliably capture postures, joint angles and muscle activities play very important role in properly determining risks relating to work and various tasks.

  6. 10. Three-body decay as a baryon polarizer

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Kärnfysik

    Author : Carl Johan Königsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Three-body decay; polarization; CP violation; hyperon; resonance; Trekroppssönderfall; polarisation; CP-brytning; hyperon; resonans;

    Abstract : According to the standard model, the size of CP violation in the weak decay Λ → pπ- is predicted to be ∼ 10-5. This means that a very high precision is needed if we want to be able to measure it. READ MORE
