Design of Self-adjusting Orthoses for Rehabilitation
Safety and comfort are primary concerns in rehabilitation devices and exoskeletons. However, the result of using simplified kinematic arrangements can be discomfort, or even injury, as a result of overconstraining the joint. In this paper, we describe a selfadjusting mechanism able to overcome misalignment between the rotational axis of the mechanism that is attached to the user’s limbs and the...
متن کاملSelf-adjusting trees in practice for large text collections
Splay and randomized search trees (RSTs) are self-balancing binary tree structures with little or no space overhead compared to a standard binary search tree (BST). Both trees are intended for use in applications where node accesses are skewed, for example in gathering the distinct words in a large text collection for index construction. We investigate the efficiency of these trees for such voc...
متن کاملDesign of a Large Range Xy Nanopositioning System
Achieving large motion range (> 1mm) along with nanometric motion quality (< 10nm), simultaneously, has been a key challenge in nanopositioning systems. Practical limitations associated with the individual physical components (bearing, actuators, and sensors) and their integration, particularly in the case of multi-axis systems, have restricted the range of currently available nanopositioning s...
متن کاملA Compliant Telescopic Limb with Anisotropic Stiffness
Soft limbs with anisotropic stiffness are common in nature and enable animals to solve a variety of tasks, including locomotion and manipulation. This mixture of hardness and softness enables animals to efficiently control the unpredictable contact forces that occur while performing such tasks. A challenge for soft robotics is to create artificial limbs that mimic natural mixtures of hardness a...
متن کاملA stiffness-based quality measure for compliant grasps and fixtures
This paper presents a systematic approach to quantifying the effectiveness of compliant grasps and fixtures of an object. The approach is physically motivated and applies to the grasping of twoand three-dimensional objects by any number of fingers. The approach is based on a characterization of the frame-invariant features of a grasp or fixture stiffness matrix. In particular, we define a set o...
