Development of Multibody Soft Tissue Models and Their Tuning to Experimental Data: With a Focus in the Canine Meniscus
… and the parameters governing the interaction of adjacent segments were tuned to create an overall physiological meniscus behavior. To this extent an experiment was designed to determine whole meniscus deformation under a semi-physiological loading. Additionally, indentation testing of articular …

Running time variability and resource allocation : a data-driven analysis of high-frequency bus operations
… the segment level, capturing correlation between adjacent segments. Explicit modeling of ridership, though supported by the framework, is not included. Validation suggests that running times are modeled accurately, but that further work in modeling terminal dispatching, dwell times, and real-time …

A Virtual Model of the Human Cervical Spine for Physics-based Simulation and Applications
… to produce increased motion compensation at the adjacent segments during flexion and extension. Greater increases in the disc forces were found in the spinal level superior to the fusion during flexion and inferior to the fusion during flexion extension. This model was also used to study of the …

Articulated pose estimation via over-parametrization and noise projection
… can be described as a series of rigid segments connected by joints. The pose of a segment places constraints on adjacent segments because they are mechanically 'connected. When modeling or perceiving the motion of such an articulated system, it is beneficial to make use of these …

Non-parametric bayesian methods for structured topic models
… structure ranging from semantically high-level segments (e.g., chapters, sections, or paragraphs) to low-level segments (e.g., sentences or words) in topic modeling. This thesis introduces a family of structured topic models for statistically modeling text documents together with their intrinsic …

Prebuckling, Buckling, and Postbuckling Response of Segmented Circular Composite Cylinders
… 5 in., were fabricated on a mandrel by splicing adjacent segments together to form 0.5 in. overlaps. Finite-element models of both cylinder configurations, including the overlap regions, are developed using the STAGS finite-element code. Perfectly circular cylinder models are considered, as are …

Kinematic coupling between the foot and lower limb during gait
… the normal coupling relationship between the two segments remains unclear. The equivocal findings in the literature may be due to previous studies concentrating on determining coupling at discrete instances only, along with the failure to include the midtarsal joint in coupling analyses. By …
