Abstract:
Passive leg movement (PLM), an assessment of predominantly nitric oxide-dependent vasodilation, is decreased with age and cannot be augmented by posture-induced increases in femoral perfusion pressure in older men. However, this novel method of assessing vascular function has yet to be used to evaluate alterations in nitric oxide-dependent vasodilation with age in females. PLM was performed in 10 young (20 ± 1 yr) and 10 old (73 ± 2 yr) women in both the supine and upright-seated postures, whereas central and peripheral hemodynamic measurements were acquired second by second using noninvasive

Abstract:
Hand postures and speech are convenient means of communication for humans and can be used in human–robot interaction. Based on structural and functional characteristics of our integrated leg-arm hexapod robot, to perform reconnaissance and rescue tasks in public security application, a method of linkage of movement and manipulation of robots is proposed based on the visual and auditory channels, and a system based on hand postures and speech recognition is described. The developed system contains: a speech module, hand posture module, fusion module, mechanical structure module, control module,

Abstract:
The Rearfoot Angle (RFA) is the most commonly method used for foot posture assessment, and it is also a method for evaluating the subtalar joint neutral foot posture. However, orthopedists and researchers often meet trouble for the measurements of the RFA and neutral foot posture due to lacking measurement with automation and objectivity. In general, the RFA was measured using a goniometer to align with manual markers on the foot. The purpose of this study implements the automatic computing of leg angle, foot angle, and RFA by the foot model using Three-Dimensional (3D) scanning. This study co

Among the male group, the effect of the sitting posture was better than that of the standing posture, 74.31% of the former achieved the training goal. In the female group, the effect of a s

Aiming at the problem that the stability of the quadruped robot is decreased as its leg momentum is too high, a stable balance adjustment structure of the quadruped robot based on the bionic lateral swing posture is proposed. First, the leg structure of the quadruped robot is improved and designed by using the mechanism of the lateral swing posture of the leg of the hoof animal. Then, the D-H method is used to construct the corresponding leg kinematics model and determine the generalized coordinates of the leg joints in the lateral swing posture.

Grasshoppers are able to spontaneously drop, or autotomize, their large metathoracic legs, at the joint between the second and third leg segments. Previous work demonstrated that in the grasshopper, Barytettix psolus, autotomy transneuronally induces atrophy in a group of six metathoracic muscles on the ipsilateral side. These muscles are neither damaged nor denervated by the loss of the leg. The experiments presented in this dissertation support and extend the earlier work by including twelve additional metathoracic muscles, one of which was discovered as a result of these studies.

Essential tremor is defined as long-standing bilateral hand/arm tremor that is visible and may occur persistently during posture-holding, simple movements, and action. The tremor may be slightly asymmetrical. Other areas of the body that may be affected are head and neck (most frequently), the voice, and legs. Head tremor without limb tremor is accepted as essential tremor, although this definition remains controversial. Essential tremor is a progressive disease and manifests at any age.

In this study, a lumped-parameter human body including lower leg in seated posture with a quarter-car model was developed for blast injury assessment simulation. To simulate the shock acceleration of the vehicle, mine blast analysis was conducted on a generic land vehicle crew compartment (sand box) structure. For the purpose of simulating human body dynamics, a physical model of lumped-parameter human body with a quarter car model was developed and implemented in multi-body dynamic simulation software. The injury criteria and tolerance levels for the biomechanical effects are discussed for ea

Abstract:
This paper proposes a design and control method of a supporting arm which reduces factory worker load. The supporting arm is a robot manipulator, which is driven by pneumatic cylinders, and is attached to the worker’s hip. In some situation, the factory worker is forced to work with an uncomfortable posture. By using the supporting arm, the worker leg loads are relaxed, and the worker posture is stabilized. To support 50 % weight of the worker, the link system of the supporting arm is designed, and the pneumatic cylinders for actuation are selected. There are two required specifications: (i) s

Abstract:
The objective of this study was to develop and validate a finite element (FE) human model that represents a 50th percentile adult pedestrian male. The geometry of the previously developed and well validated Ford Human Body (FHB) model was modified to change the posture from driving to standing. The femur, tibia, and fibula were validated against published test data of human bone specimens in different dynamic loading scenarios. The leg model was validated against dynamic, three-point bending test data of human legs from Post Mortem Human Subjects (PMHS). The kinematics and dynamics of the full

Abstract:
1.1 Macroeconomic summary Economic recovery has consistently outperformed the technical staff’s expectations following a steep decline in activity in the second quarter of 2020. At the same time, total and core inflation rates have fallen and remain at low levels, suggesting that a significant element of the reactivation of Colombia’s economy has been related to recovery in potential GDP. This would support the technical staff’s diagnosis of weak aggregate demand and ample excess capacity. The most recently available data on 2020 growth suggests a contraction in economic activity of 6.8%, lowe

Abstract:
De acuerdo con el mandato constitucional, el Banco de la República debe “velar por mantener el poder adquisitivo de la moneda, en coordinación con la política económica general”. Para cumplir con este mandato, la Junta Directiva del Banco de la República (JDBR) adoptó como estrategia un esquema flexible de inflación objetivo, en el cual las acciones de política monetaria (PM) buscan conducir la inflación a una meta puntual y alcanzar el nivel máximo sostenible del producto y del empleo. La flexibilidad del esquema le permite a la JDBR mantener un balance apropiadoentre el logro de la meta de i
