Influence of the dynamometer and knee joint axis of rotation alignment on the isokinetic measurements J.L. Croisier, P. Ciavatta and B. Forthomme Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, University of Liege, Belgium E-mail: [email protected] Objectives: Factors that could influence accuracy of isokinetic assessment deserve careful attention [1,2]. In order to develop accurate and ...

The article presents the justification for necessity to use chassis dynamometers in tuning process of dual-fuel trucks. research system used and methodology are presented. results present approach solving problems related setting technical (physical) data tested vehicle on dynamometer, selection engine operation range, impact value forced load drive axle, dyno mode expected tasks correctness sc...

In this study, a simple method based on the dynamic equation of motion was introduced to determine the moment of inertia using a commercial dynamometer, and an optimization technique was utilized to estimate inertial parameters with the determined moment of inertia. To evaluate the feasibility of the developed method, three different passive speeds (i.e. 240, 270 and 300°/s) were chosen to conf...

Aiming to solve the problem that internal resistance of dynamometer is regarded as a constant force by traditional test method, which causes measurement precision vehicle driving wheel instantaneous output power be insufficient, system for drum movement was constructed, method put forward, and mathematical model established. Model analysis experimental results showed actual reflected more accur...

BACKGROUND Grip strength is used to infer functional status in several pathological conditions, and the hand dynamometer has been used to estimate performance in other areas. However, this relationship is controversial in neuromuscular diseases and studies with the bulb dynamometer comparing healthy children and children with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) are limited. OBJECTIVE The evolut...
