Motion Analysis of the Arm Based on Functional Anatomy
نویسندگان
چکیده
This article presents a biomechanical model of the right arm, developped with respect to the functional anatomy of the human. This model is developped as a motion analysis tool. The main application issued from this model is the muscle forces estimation of the flexion/extension and internal rotation of the forearm joints. This estimation is based on an inverse dynamics method, improved with additionnal constraints such as co-contraction factor between flexors and extensors of a joint. The article first presents the related work, then presents the biomechanical model developed, and at last some results obtained for a sample movement of the arm.

The Effect of Kinesio Taping on Pain, Range of Motion, Hand Strength and Functional Abilities in Patients with Hand Osteoarthritis: A Pilot Randomized Clinical Trial
Background: Osteoarthritis is one of the most prevalent joint diseases in older adults. Since hand has a key role in daily activities, impairment of hand causes disability and reduction of independency. The present study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of kinesio taping (KT) on pain, range of motion, hand strength and functional abilities in patient with hand osteoarthritis. Method...
متن کاملOptimizing control motion of a human arm With PSO-PID controller
Functional electrical stimulation (FES) is the most commonly used system for restoring function after spinal cord injury (SCI). In this study, we used a model consists of a joint, two links with one degree of freedom, and two muscles as flexor and extensor of the joint, which simulated in MATLAB using SimMechanics and Simulink Toolboxes. The muscle model is based on Zajac musculotendon actuator...

This paper puts forward a real-time angular tracking (motion capture) system for a low cost upper limb exosuit based on sensor fusion; which is integrated by an elastic sleeve-mitten, two inertial measurement units (IMU), two flex sensors and a wireless communication system. The device can accurately detect the angular position of the shoulder (flexion-extension, abduction-adduction and interna...
متن کاملThe determination of correlation between total length of upper limb and length of upper limb segments in students of Tehran University of Medical Sciences
Introduction & Objective Estimating limb length based on the remaining parts of each limb is one of the most important challenges among anatomists and forensic specialists. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between upper limb length and length of upper limb segments to derive a regression formula for estimating upper limb length. Methods Four parameter of upper limb length,...
متن کاملDesign and Analysis of a Novel Tendon-less Backbone Robot
A new type of backbone robot is presented in this paper. The core idea is to use a cross shape mechanism with the principle of functioning of the scissors linkages, known as a pantograph. Although this continuum arm acts quite similar to tendon-driven robot, this manipulator does not include any tendon in its structure. This design does not suffer from the weaknesses of the continuum design suc...
