The Presence of an Obstacle Influences the Stepping Response during Simulated and Real Trips
نویسندگان
چکیده
INTRODUCTION Falling is a frequent cause of serious injury in the older adult population and trips are a dominant cause of falls. Although there are few laboratory protocols that induce actual trips, there are many studies that utilize surrogate tasks. Performance of surrogate tasks require similar biomechanical characteristic stepping responses, but unlike a trip, these tasks do not involve an obstacle.

Back-Stepping Sliding Mode Controller for Uncertain Chaotic Colpitts Oscillator with no Chattering
By introducing Colpitts oscillator as a chaotic system, this paper deals with back-stepping control method and investigates the restrictions and problems of the controller where non-existence of a suitable response in the presence of uncertainty is the most important problem to note. In this paper, the back-stepping sliding mode method is introduced as a robust method for controlling nonlinear ...
متن کاملSimultaneous robust estimation of multi-response surfaces in the presence of outliers
A robust approach should be considered when estimating regression coefficients in multi-response problems. Many models are derived from the least squares method. Because the presence of outlier data is unavoidable in most real cases and because the least squares method is sensitive to these types of points, robust regression approaches appear to be a more reliable and suitable method for addres...

متن کاملOptimal Operation of Microgrid in the presence of Real-time Pricing Demand Response Program using Artificial Bee Colony Algorithm with a Modified Choice Function
Abstract: Microgrid is one of the newest technologies in power systems. Microgrid can usually has a set of distributed energy resources that makes it able to operate separate from power grid. Optimal operation of microgrids means the optimal dispatch of power resources through day and night hours. This thesis proposed a new method for optimal operation of microgrid. In this method, real-time pr...
متن کاملBIODESULFURIZATION OF SIMULATED LIGHT FUEL OIL BY A NATIVE ISOLATED BACTERIA BACILLUS CEREUS HN
In the present paper, the biodesulfurization of simulated light fuel oil (i.e., dibenzothiophene (DBT) in dodecane) and untreated kerosene with a high total sulfur content has been studied by a native isolated bacterium named Bacillus cereus HN. The influences of various parameters such as the reaction temperature (T), biocatalyst cell density, oil phase fraction (OFP), and initial DBT concentr...
