1. Stabilisation of Steel Structures by Diaphragm Action of Trapezoidal Sheeting
University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnadAbstract : The main idea behind stabilisation by diaphragm action is to create a deep beam thatcan resist horizontal loads acting on a structure. It is achieved by connecting the sheetingto the primary structure of the roof so that the edge beams resist the bending momentthrough normal stresses and the sheeting resists the shear force through shear stresses.

2. 3D Finite Element Modeling of the Lower Limb
University essay from Högskolan i Jönköping/JTH, ProduktutvecklingAbstract : This thesis project provides a method to simulate the internal mechanical properties of the undeformed human lower limb when an external force is applied. The value of the external force is determined by the deformed magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images, which is converted into displacement instead. READ MORE

3. Optomyography - Detection ofmuscle surface displacement using reflective photo resistor.
University essay from KTH/Medicinska sensorer, signaler och systemAbstract : A human body can carry out many physiological complex processes which can be mechanical, electrical or bio-chemical. Each mechanical activity generates a signal that describes the characteristics of the particular action in the form of pressure or temperature. READ MORE

5. Optical sensors for mechanomyography and tissue chromophores
University essay from Lunds universitet/Atomfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionenAbstract : The mechanomyogram (MMG) is a mechanical oscillations observable on the surface of the skin as a muscle contracts. Measurement of the MMG utilizing contact sensors with a weight greater than 6 g has proved to interfere with the measurement. Use of optical displacement sensors without direct contact to the skin would remove this deficiency. READ MORE
