Abstract:

Because of the high force–weight ratio of water hydraulic artificial muscle and its high compatibility with an underwater environment, the water hydraulic artificial muscle has received increasing attention due to its potential uses in marine engineering applications. The master–slave anthropopathic joint actuated by water hydraulic artificial muscles is light and small, and it has good maneuverability for underwater manipulators. However, the control methodologies for water hydraulic artificial muscle joint have not been thoroughly explored to date. This article introduces a master–slave control system of isomorphic artificial muscle joints. The water hydraulic artificial muscle joint acts as a slave joint working under the sea, and the pneumatic artificial muscle joint acts as a master joint that is operated by people. The rotation angle signal of the pneumatic artificial muscle joint is fed back as the input to regulate the rotation angle of the water hydraulic artificial muscle joint through a proportional–integral–derivative control. Meanwhile, the torque of the pneumatic artificial muscle joint is controlled by a proportional–integral–derivative controller based on the feedback of a two-force-transducer system in the water hydraulic artificial muscle joint as input. Therefore, the operator can control the movement and feel the load of the water hydraulic artificial muscle slave joint. Master–slave control experiments were performed, and the position/torque control results were analyzed using various loads and torque gains. This study contributes to the design and control of an anthropopathic underwater manipulator.

Abstract:

The stress relationship between the artifical knee-joints of the same pairing and crossed pairing was studied by the contrastive contact analysis of finite element simulation in different angles and conditions. The service lives of the artifical knee-joints of different pairing were studied based on the above result and Archard wear design calculation theory to expand the application of existing artificial knee-joints. The result shows that, the maximal contact stresses of the artifical knee-joints of crossed pairing are more than those of the artifical knee-joints of the same pairing, and the more different pairing types are, the more obvious stress growths are. The service life of the artifical knee-joint of 3/3 pairing is 28.42 years, and the service lives of 3/2.5 pairing and 3/4 pairing are 27.08 years and 25.76 years respectively.

Abstract:

Wrist joint prostheses have developed from simple silicone joint spacers to the current state of the art where design philosophy now follows that of large joint replacement. A variety of shortcomings identified in existing designs through their clinical use led to the development of a new wrist joint prosthesis being designed. A combination of disciplines yields the necessary data and tools to develop the optimum solution to replicating the anatomical rotational centres of the healthy wrist whilst at the same time satisfying the requirements of stability, effective implantation and wear characteristics. The key tool in drawing conclusions from the articulating surfaces selected in the design proposals is Finite Element Analysis. The use of an implicit, nonlinear static contact analysis model developed and solved using MSC MARC software was used to examine the behaviour of the implant models' Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene component over a large range of motion and under a compressive load. The anticipated displacements and loads caused by performing daily living tasks fall comfortably within the range of motion specified for the analyses. This, coupled with repeated analysis of the model for small geometrical alterations enabled an optimum model to be selected. The information from these analyses was used directly in making decisions on the design of the prosthesis in conjunction with cadaveric trials. The initial cadaveric trial validated the primary geometrical features of the design regarding centres of rotation and stem location and identified clear areas for design refinement. The second trial fully validated the design decisions taken. Following the analytical work on the new design, and the completion of the cadaveric trials, a comparative analysis was carried out with competing designs to further validate the design. The results of this show that the new design is competitive in terms of demonstrating low stress concentrations over a practical range of motion, and that it also has excellent stability. Beyond these features, the new implant design also facilitates secure implantation, in conjunction with a range of sizes likely to accommodate the greatest range of patient anatomical variation.

Abstract:

Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, 1995.
Includes bibliographical references (leaves 128-135).
Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene has been used as a bearing material in artificial joints for more than thirty years. Despite this long period of use and the success which artificial implants have had, material failure and ultimately prosthetic failure still occurs as the result of mechanical wear of the bearing surface. Several wear mechanisms have been proposed as the main causes for failure; however, none is as dominant as the delamination wear of artificial knee prostheses. Delamination wear occurs mainly as the result of cyclic plastic deformation of the surface and subsurface layer which causes cracks to nucleate and propagate in the subsurface leading to the production of wear sheets. This research seeks a new alternative material to prevent the occurrence of delamination wear by the use of a fiber reinforced composite. The use of a fiber-reinforced composite having fibers oriented normal to the sliding direction is known to offer reduced plastic deformation resulting from the high stiffness of fibers and furthermore can inhibit crack nucleation and more importantly propagation since fibers are able to arrest the growth of cracks normal to the fiber axis. This new material has been called homo composite based on the fact that fiber and matrix are made from the same material, namely UHMWPE. This material has shown promising results in friction tests yielding coefficients of 0.05 in bovine lubricated sliding conditions. The optimization of material processing parameters with respect to friction and wear of the homocomposite is also presented.

Abstract:

Hip joint is one of the most important human joints that should be fully understood. The present research work aims at improving the tribological performance of the human artificial hip joint prostheses to help in producing reliable ones using design charts. An elasto-hydrodynamic model of the hip joint is proposed and numerical solution of the governing equations using finite difference technique is used to predict the elasto-hydrodynamic behavior of such joint. Parametric study has been conducted and results have shown that, thicker cup gives better tribological performance and the increase in the femoral head radius results in decreasing the non-dimensional maximum pressure and decreasing the non-dimensional minimum film thickness. Also, increasing the angular velocity doesn’t affect the tribological behavior considerably.

Abstract:

A new structure of artificial joints with bionic joint capsule was proposed and designed to overcome the feedback of current prostheses that omitted many functions of lubricant and joint capsule. The new structure was composed of three components: therapeutic lubricant, artificial joints and artificial joint capsule. The lubricant sealed by capsule not only can reduce the wear of artificial joints but also can prohibit the wear particles leaking to the body liquid. So the unwilling reactions between the wear particles and liquid may be avoided completely. Meanwhile, a three-dimensional (3-D) finite element analysis (FEA) model was created for the bionic artificial joints with joint capsule. The effects of capsule thickness and the flexion angels on the stress values and distributions were discussed in detail.

Abstract:

This article discusses the current state of neurointerface technologies, not limited to deep electrode approaches. There are new heuristic ideas for creating a fast and broadband channel from the brain to artificial intelligence. One of the ideas is not to decipher the natural codes of nerve cells, but to create conditions for the development of a new language for communication between the human brain and artificial intelligence tools. Theoretically, this is possible if the brain "feels" that by changing the activity of nerve cells that communicate with the computer, it is possible to "achieve" the necessary actions for the body in the external environment, for example, to take a cup of coffee or turn on your favorite music. At the same time, an artificial neural network that analyzes the flow of nerve impulses must also be directed at the brain, trying to guess the body's needs at the moment with a minimum number of movements. The most important obstacle to further progress is the problem of biocompatibility, which has not yet been resolved. This is even more important than the number of electrodes and the power of the processors on the chip. When you insert a foreign object into your brain, it tries to isolate itself from it. This is a multidisciplinary topic not only for doctors and psychophysiologists, but also for engineers, programmers, mathematicians. Of course, the problem is complex and it will be possible to overcome it only with joint efforts.

Abstract:

Near-to-surface geothermal energy with heat pumps is state of the art and is already widespread in Switzerland. In the future energy system, medium-deep to deep geothermal energy (1 to 6 kilometres) will, in addition, play an important role. To the forefront is the supply of heat for buildings and industrial processes. This form of geothermal energy utilisation requires a highly permeable underground area that allows a fluid – usually water – to absorb the naturally existing rock heat and then transport it to the surface. Sedimentary rocks are usually permeable by nature, whereas for granites and gneisses permeability must be artificially induced by injecting water. The heat gained in this way increases in line with the drilling depth: at a depth of 1 kilometre, the underground temperature is approximately 40°C, while at a depth of 3 kilometres it is around 100°C. To drive a steam turbine for the production of electricity, temperatures of over 100°C are required. As this requires greater depths of 3 to 6 kilometres, the risk of seismicity induced by the drilling also increases. Underground zones are also suitable for storing heat and gases, such as hydrogen or methane, and for the definitive storage of CO2. For this purpose, such zones need to fulfil similar requirements to those applicable to heat generation. In addition, however, a dense top layer is required above the reservoir so that the gas cannot escape. The joint project “Hydropower and geo-energy” of the NRP “Energy” focused on the question of where suitable ground layers can be found in Switzerland that optimally meet the requirements for the various uses. A second research priority concerned measures to reduce seismicity induced by deep drilling and the resulting damage to buildings. Models and simulations were also developed which contribute to a better understanding of the underground processes involved in the development and use of geothermal resources. In summary, the research results show that there are good conditions in Switzerland for the use of medium-deep geothermal energy (1 to 3 kilometres) – both for the building stock and for industrial processes. There are also grounds for optimism concerning the seasonal storage of heat and gases. In contrast, the potential for the definitive storage of CO2 in relevant quantities is rather limited. With respect to electricity production using deep geothermal energy (> 3 kilometres), the extent to which there is potential to exploit the underground economically is still not absolutely certain. In this regard, industrially operated demonstration plants are urgently needed in order to boost acceptance among the population and investors.
