Strain analysis in glenohumeral capsule through finite element modelling
… in the glenohumeral capsule at a particular joint angle have been studied extensively. However, there is a lack of information on the strain distributions in the capsule under complex joint angles, i.e, during the activities of daily living (ADL). To investigate the mechanical response of the …

A Comparison of Methods for Measuring Damage in Sucrose-Treated Medial Collateral Ligaments
The knee is the most complex joint in the human body. It consists of a system of muscle, bone, and ligaments that endures repetitive loading during daily and athletic activities. When this loading is excessive, damage to the knee occurs leading to a decreased quality of life.The medial collateral …

Cross-Layer Optimization and Distributed Algorithm Design for Frequency-Agile Radio Networks
… radio networks and propose simple joint channel scheduling and flow routing optimization algorithm that maximizes network throughput. The model quantifies the impact of fundamental network settings, such as node density and traffic load, on the performance of partially overlapped …

Statistical methods for longitudinal medical data with applications
… to logistic models applied so far, using a more complex joint model that incorporates all the patients clinical history. (III) Finally, the third one addresses the practical implementation of pre-existing methodologies discussed in the literature. Specifically, it focuses on adapting one of these …

A Risk- and Fuzzy Set-Based Methodology for Advanced Concept Technology Demonstration Military Utility Assessment Design
… Within a context determined by attributes of complex systems, the research observed twin premises that ACTD assessment designs should accommodate: all risks possible when incorporating demonstration prototypes within superior and complex, joint military operations metasystems; and the …

Quantitative characterization of multi-variable human ankle mechanical impedance
… and the corresponding torque at the ankle joint, plays a key role in natural interaction of the lower-extremity with the environment. The human ankle is a biomechanically complex joint consisting of three bones with non-intersecting anatomical axes, and its motions under normal motor …

Long polyphase sequences for adaptive mmse detector in asynchronous cdma plc network with impulsive noise
… other. In addition to this, system computational complexity, cost and power consumption need to be taken into account during design phase. So, simple systems need to be implemented, so that all the users access the medium asynchronously without the coordination of any central node. To understand …

Achieving Complex Motion with Fundamental Components for Lamina Emergent Mechanisms
… used pop-up paper mechanisms. A survey of common joint types is given, as well as an overview of common monolithic and layered mechanisms. In addition, it is shown that more complex mechanisms may be created by combining simple mechanisms in various ways. The principles presented are applied to …
