OBJECTIVES Musculoskeletal pain is highly prevalent throughout adulthood with a major impact on health, function and participation in the society. Still, the association between muscle strength and development of musculoskeletal pain is unclear. We aimed to study whether overall muscle strength in adolescent men is inversely associated with self-reported musculoskeletal pain in adulthood. DES...

The roadmap [25] states importance of registration of data sets for creation of the Virtual Physiological Human, a model of a human body. It also mentions usage of morphing technique for interpolation of new data. This thesis focuses on the transformations tied with these operations and tries to find an automatic solution which does not need user set up parameters. The deformation filter for su...

Introduction: Efficient gait control using Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) is an open research problem. In this research, a new intermittent controller has been designed to control the human shank movement dynamics during gait. Methods: In this approach, first, the three-dimensional phase space was constructed using the human shank movement data recorded from the healthy subjects. Then...

This paper provides describes solution for the fully automatic registration and multi-morphing of surface triangular meshes. It solves the instability problem experienced with non-manifold mesh transformations. A refinement and interpolation of multiple such meshes representing the same object are used to obtain one manifold mesh for later processing. Details can be found in [2].
