A New Algorithm to Estimate Glenohumeral Joint Location Based on Scapula Rhythm
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2018)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis work analyzes the human shoulder complex workspace by introducing a new method to estimate the intra-articulation location of the glenohumeral (GH) joint. The proposed algorithm is based on the hypothesis of the GH ... -
A new technique for curved rod bending tests based on digital image correlation
(2021-11-19)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyBackground. The study of the deformation of curved rods subjected to bending and its associated stress state is a complex task that has not been treated in depth in the literature, which makes difficult to obtain constitutive ... -
A novel spatial feature for the identification of motor tasks using high-density electromyography
(MDPI AG, 2017-07-08)
Article
Open AccessEstimation of neuromuscular intention using electromyography (EMG) and pattern recognition is still an open problem. One of the reasons is that the pattern-recognition approach is greatly influenced by temporal changes in ... -
A poroviscoelastic description of fibrin gels
(2008-11-14)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe mechanical induction of specific cell phenotypes can only be properly controlled if the local stimuli applied to the cells are known as a function of the external applied loads. Finite element analysis of the cell ... -
A predictive model for fracture in human ribs based on in-vitro acoustic emission data
(2021-09-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyPurpose The aim of this paper is to propose a fracture model for human ribs based on acoustic emission (AE) data. The accumulation of microcracking until a macroscopic crack is produced can be monitored by AE. The ... -
