A Robotic Model of the Human Neuro-Musculo-Skeletal System
A pair of muscles powering the human joint in an antagonistic configuration exemplifies the main difference between standard industrial robots and biological motor systems. Since muscles have a natural stiffness that varies with the muscle activation level, the central nervous system can generate stable equilibrium postures, towards which the arm is attracted, by properly regulating the activat...
متن کاملIsometric shoulder muscle activation patterns for 3-D planar forces: a methodology for musculo-skeletal model validation.
OBJECTIVE To present an isometric method for validation of a shoulder model simulation by means of experimentally obtained electromyography and addressing all muscles active around the shoulder joints. BACKGROUND Analysis of muscle force distribution in the shoulder by means of electromyography during motion tasks is hampered by artificial and non-linear amplitude modulation and is often limi...
متن کاملMRI-Based Skeletal Hand Movement Model
The kinematics of the human hand is optimal with respect to force distribution during pinch as well as power grasp, reducing the tissue strain when exerting forces through opposing fingers and optimising contact faces. Quantifying this optimality is of key importance when constructing biomimetic robotic hands, but understanding the exact human finger motion is also an important asset in, e.g., ...
متن کاملHand Posture Estimation by Combining 2-D Appearance-Based and 3-D Model-Based Approaches
This paper proposes a method for the rapid and precise estimation of human hand postures by combining 2-D appearance matching and 3-D model-based fitting. First a rough posture estimate is obtained by image indexing. Each possible hand appearance generated from a given 3-D shape model is labeled by an index obtained by PCA compression and registered with its 3-D model parameters in advance. By ...
متن کاملThe musculo-skeletal features of hypothyroidism.
DURING recent years it has become accepted that patients with hypothyroidism may present with a variety of rheumatic syndromes, sometimes well before the more obvious features of myxoedema have appeared, and these 'hypothyroid-rheumatic syndromes' will be described. This term is used in preference to 'myxoedematous arthropathy', because the patients in question are not frankly myxoedematous, my...
