Abstract:
La presente tesi espone lo sviluppo di muscoli pneumatici artificiali adatti ad essere integrati in un vestito attivo al fine di sviluppare un prototipo di maglietta per la movimentazione delle braccia con l’idea che l’uso di tessuti, invece che di esoscheletri rigidi, possano risolvere contemporaneamente i problemi di mobilità e di ergonomia. Gli attuatori pneumatici tradizionali, com’è noto, hanno larga diffusione per l’elevato rapporto potenza-peso, i costi contenuti, la facilità d’installazione e la robustezza; assicurano una grande efficienza, specialmente in quelle applicazioni automati

Abstract:
The soft robotics field is developing rapidly and is poised to have a wide impact in a variety of applications. Soft robots have intrinsic compliance, offering a number of benefits as compared to traditional rigid robots. Compliance can provide compatibility with biological systems such as the human body and can provide some benefits for human safety and control. Further research into soft robots can be advanced by further development of pneumatic actuators. Pneumatic actuators are a good fit for exoskeleton robots because of their light weight, small size, and flexible materials. This i

Ideal prostheses are defined as artificial limbs that would permit physically impaired individuals freedom of movement and independence rather than a life of disability and dependence. Current lower limb prostheses range from a single mechanical revolute joint to advanced microprocessor controlled mechanisms. Despite the advancement in technology and medicine, current lower limb prostheses are still lacking an actuation element, which prohibits patients from regaining their original mobility and improving their quality of life.

A control method is proposed for exercising specific muscles of a human's lower body. This is accomplished using an exoskeleton that imposes active force feedback control. The proposed method involves a combined dynamic model of the musculoskeletal system of the lower-body with the dynamics of pneumatic actuators. The exoskeleton is designed to allow for individual control of mono-articular or bi-articular muscles to be exercised while not inhibiting the subject's range of motion. The control method has been implemented in a 1-Degree of Freedom (DOF) exoskeleton that is designed to resist the

Assistive technologies traditionally rely on either strong actuation or passive structures to provide users with increased strength, support or the ability to perform lost functions. At one end of the spectrum are powered exoskeletons, which significantly increase a user’s strength, but require strong actuators, complex control systems, and heavy power sources. At the other end are orthoses, which are generally unpowered and lightweight devices that rely on their structure’s mechanical behaviour to enhance user’s support and stability.

Therefore, it is widely applied to industrial automation or rehabilitation engineering. Due to compressibility of air and the nonlinear elasticity of bladder container caused parameter variation, it can not attain excellent control performance. In this study, the two degree of freedom arm actuated by four pneumatic muscle actuators is used as a rehabilitation robot.

Although electromagnetic motors may be the most widely used actuators in the robotic area, pneumatic actuators have their own advantages, such as lightness, cleanness and easy maintenance. Of all the pneumatic actuators, pneumatic artificial muscles (PAMs) may be the most promising one for the design of assistive or rehabilitatio

In the axis the pneumatic servo system serves to position in coarse stroke and the fluidic muscle actuator (FMA) compensates fine stroke. This single-axis system is constituted with a rodless cylinder and a fluidic muscle actuator combined. The thesis focuses on the study of the positioning control of axis and the characteristics of variant size of fluidic muscles. The fuzzy sliding mode controller (FSMC) is used to dev

Due to the structure and the material of PAMs, they possess a special property of compliance. Thus, they are suitable for the devices that have directly interaction with human such as exoskeletons and rehabilitation equipment. However, the compressibility of air and other nonlinearities result in the difficulty to describe pneumatic system accurately with mathematical model and control them.

The PMA system is a highly nonlinear and time-variant system because of the various properties of air, such as its compressibility, low viscosity, low natural frequency, the hysteresis of proportional valve coils, zero drift, and the dead band in valve movements.

Abstract:
Intermittent Pneumatic Compression (IPC) use as a tool for recovery after exercise has recently become widespread among athletes. While there is strong anecdotal support for IPC, little research has been done to show its effectiveness in recovery. Eight collegiate football athletes were recruited and subjected to IPC or control conditions in a randomized crossover manner during off-season training. Countermovement jump (CMJ) and 10m sprint were evaluated before training, at 3 and 24 hours following training. Self-reported soreness, blood markers of inflammation [interleukin-6, interleukin-10,
