Design of an Active Walking-aid for Elderly People
This paper describes the preliminary design of a light, high stability, robotic system for elderly assistance. The mechanisms used for such assisting devices must exhibit complex mechanical functions that may change during the use. The design has also to be adapted to the morphology and/or pathology. Taking these constraints into account, the design of a robotic walker is presented which provid...
متن کاملMultifunctional above-knee prosthesis for stairs' walking.
The multifunctional above-knee prosthesis WLP-7R (Waseda Leg Prosthesis - type 7 Refined) described in this study allows amputees to descend and ascend stairs with no external power sources. With the hydraulic circuit mounted in the shank, the ankle joint and the knee joint mutually conterbalance during stance phase in stair walking as well as level walking so that the following performances ar...
متن کاملLow-floor bus design preferences of walking aid users during simulated boarding and alighting.
Low-floor buses represent a significant improvement in accessible public transit for passengers with limited mobility. However, there is still a need for research on the inclusive design of transit buses to identify specific low-floor bus design conditions that are either particularly accommodating or challenging for passengers with functional and mobility impairments. These include doorway loc...
متن کاملDesign of a walking-aid and sit to stand transfer assisting device for elderly people
This paper describes the preliminary design of a light, high stability, robotic system for elderly assistance. The mechanisms used for such assisting devices must exhibit complex mechanical functions that may change during the use. The design was built up thinking about the constraints of a chosen pathology. Taking these constraints into account, the design of a robotic walker is presented whic...
متن کاملComputational design of multifunctional materials
We propose a general scheme for the computational design of new materials using density functional theory. We then apply the scheme to two classes of materials; ferromagnetic ferroelectrics and half-metallic antiferromagnets. Our first ‘‘designer’’ ferromagnetic ferroelectric has subsequently been synthesized and the predicted properties verified. Our computations on halfmetallic antiferromagne...
