The purpose of this study was to develop a method for estimating 3-D coordinates of lower trunk muscles using orientation angles during a motion. Traditional 3-D motion analysis system with DLT technique was used to track down the locations of eight reference markers which were attached on the back of the subject. In order to estimate the orientations of individual lumbar vertebrae and musculoskeletal parameters of the lower trunk muscle, the rotation matrix of the middle trunk reference frame relative to the lower trunk reference frame was determined and the angular locations of individual lumbar vertebrae were estimated by partitioning the orientation angles (Cardan angles) that represent the relative angles between the rotations of the middle and lower trunks. When the orientation angles of individual intervertebral joints were known at a given instant, the instantaneous coordinates of the origin and insertion for all selected muscles relative to the L5 local reference frame were obtained by applying the transformation matrix to the original coordinates which were relative to a local reference frame (S1, L4, L3, L2, or L1) in a rotation sequence about the Z-, X- and Y-axes. The multiplication of transformation matrices was performed to estimate the geometry and kinematics of all selected muscles. The time histories of the 3-D coordinates of the origin and insertion of all selected muscles relative to the center of the L4-L5 motion segment were determined for each trial.

A 3-D rehabilitation robot system is developed. The robot system is for the rehabilitation of upper extremities, especially the shoulder and elbow joints, and has 3-D workspace for occupational therapy to recover physical functions in activities of daily living(ADL). The rehabilitation robot system has 1 DOF in horizontal rotational motion and 2 DOF in vertical rotational motion, where all actuators are set on the ground. Parallelogram linkage mechanisms lower the equivalent inertia of the control elements as well as control forces. Also the mechanisms have high mechanical rigidity for the end effector and the handle. In this paper, a hybrid position/force controller is used for controlling positions and forces simultaneously The controller is tuned according to the robot posture. The active motion modes for rehabilitation program consist of active-resisted motion mode and active-free motion mode. The results of the experiments show that the proposed motion modes provide the intended forces effectively.

The purpose of this study : 1. The total 24 range measurements of active dynamic motion of 40 subjects(20's and 30's, and 40's∼60's) using previous studies. The results were compared with the other studies in the aspects of age. In this study, The 3-D motion analysis system consists of VICON 140, data acquisition system, and data analysis program called by KRISSMAS. VICON 140 is dynamic motion analyzer, and KRISSMAS is a program developed for analysis of the data captured from the VICON. The results of this study were as follows : 1. Comparing 20's∼30's and 40's∼60's the result shows that 40's∼60's have smaller ROM at the most joints(Thoratic and Lumber, Hip Joint, Knee Joint, Ankle Joint), which is inconsistent with the previous result. The reason is that most investigations were carried out using traditional measurement equipments, which have encountered difficulty in quantifying the exact motion of the body. 2. There are no significant mean difference between the right and the left side. Most of the significances were not high(〉0.05).

본 연구는 골격이 있고 삼각형 메쉬로 이루어진 3D 모델의 변형을 빠른 연산 속도로 구현하는 것을 목표로 한다. 이를 위해 삼각형 메쉬 정점의 위치를 빠른 속도로 계산할 수 있는 IK 풀이 방법을 연구하고 해당 인터페이스를 개발하였다. 모델 표면상에 한 개 이상의 마커를 지정하고 마커의 목표 위치를 설정하면, 이 시스템은 마커의 목표 위치를 기준으로 가속화된 IK 풀이를 통해 모델 표면을 구성하는 삼각형 메쉬 정점의 위치를 계산한다. 메쉬의 위치를 결정하는 데에는 각 마커와 해당 마커에 영향을 미치는 관절, 그리고 해당 관절의 상위(부모) 관절에 대하여 계산을 수행하는데, 이 과정에서 빈번하게 사용되는 중복된 항(terms)이 발생한다. 이러한 중복항을 사전에 계산해 둠으로써 기존의 삼중 중첩 반복 구조의 계산 절차를 이중 중첩 반복 구조로 개선하여 모델 변형 결과를 신속하게 구현할 수 있다. 제안된 가속화된 IK 풀이 방법은 LBS 기법으로 구현된 3D 모델을 다루거나 마커 없이 단순 촬영만으로 대상 물체를 추적하는 무마커 추적 관련 연구 등 다양한 분야에서 유용하게 활용할 수 있다.

Background: Arm swing plays a role in gait by accommodating forward movement through trunk balance. This study evaluates the biomechanical characteristics of arm swing during gait. Methods: The study performed computational musculoskeletal modeling based on motion tracking in 15 participants without musculoskeletal or gait disorder. A three-dimensional (3D) motion tracking system using three Azure Kinect (Microsoft) modules was used to obtain information in the 3D location of shoulder and elbow joints. Computational modeling using AnyBody Modeling System was performed to calculate the joint moment and range of motion (ROM) during arm swing. Results: Mean ROM of the dominant elbow was 29.7°±10.2° and 14.2°±3.2° in flexion-extension and pronation-supination, respectively. Mean joint moment of the dominant elbow was 56.4±12.7 Nm, 25.6±5.2 Nm, and 19.8±4.6 Nm in flexion-extension, rotation, and abduction-adduction, respectively. Conclusions: The elbow bears the load created by gravity and muscle contracture in dynamic arm swing movement.

F.R.P specimens were made by mixture CM(chopped mat) 450-104 matrix & RC(roving clothes)570-100 Roving, the mixture ratio Resin: hardener (92:8) for tensile test. It was also made of plates by hand lay-up method and was been cured for 24 hours and then was cut tensile specimens in accordance with ASTM D638 Type 3. Knowing exact behavior of bonded area's stress and strain when the tensile test was going on, the test specimens were made of 2 plies laminae of F.R.P in each for supporting cut part in middle of specimen length. And in middle part also were covered of F.R.P plies of 1/2, 2/3 length of specimen in each as well. Also we consider shear stress in adhered area. This study reveals that as plys length is more longer, rupture stress grows remarkably larger.

행동 인식은 데이터를 통해 인간의 행동을 인식하는 기술로서 비디오 감시 시스템을 통한 위험 행동과 같은 어플리케이션에 활용되어 질 수 있다. 기존의 행동 인식 알고리즘은 2차원 카메라를 통한 영상이나 다중모드 센서, 멀티 뷰와 같은 장비를 이용한 방법을 사용하거나 3D 장비를 이용하여 이루어져 왔다. 2차원 데이터를 사용한 경우 3차원 공간의 행위 인식에서는 가려짐과 같은 현상으로 낮은 인식율을 보였고 다른 방법은 복잡한 장비의 구성이나 고가의 추가적인 장비로 인한 어려움이 많았다. 본 논문은 RGB와 Depth 정보만을 이용하여 추가적인 장비 없이 CCTV 영상만으로 인간의 행동을 인식하는 방법을 제안한다. 먼저 RGB 영상에서 스켈레톤 추출 알고리즘을 적용하여 관절과 신체부위의 포인트를 추출한다. 이를 식을 적용하여 변위 벡터와 관계 벡터를 포함한 벡터로 변형한 후 RNN 모델을 통하여 연속된 벡터 데이터를 학습한다. 학습된 모델을 다양한 데이터 세트에 적용하여 행동 인식 정확도를 확인한 결과 2차원 정보만으로 3차원 정보를 이용한 기존의 알고리즘과 유사한 성능을 입증할 수 있었다.

In this paper, the shear behavior of soft filling in rectangular-hollow concrete specimens was simulated using the 2D particle flow code (PFC2D). The laboratory-measured properties were used to calibrate some PFC2D micro-properties for modeling the behavior of geo-materials. The dimensions of prepared and modeled samples were 100 mm×100 mm. Some disc type narrow bands were removed from the central part of the model and different lengths of bridge areas (i.e., the distance between internal tips of two joints) with lengths of 30 mm, 50 mm, and 70 mm were produced. Then, the middle of the rectangular hollow was filled with cement material. Three filling sizes with dimensions of 5 mm×5 mm, 10 mm×5 mm, and 15 mm×5 mm were provided for different modeled samples. The parallel bond model was used to calibrate and re-produce these modeled specimens. Therefore, totally, 9 different types of samples were designed for the shear tests in PFC2D. The shear load was gradually applied to the model under a constant loading condition of 3 MPa (σc/3). The loading was continued till shear failure occur in the modeled concrete specimens. It has been shown that both tensile and shear cracks may occur in the fillings. The shear cracks mainly initiated from the crack (joint) tips and coalesced with another one. The shear displacements and shear strengths were both increased as the filling dimensions increased (for the case of a bridge area with a particular fixed length).

Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the peak torques of the knee and ankle joint and local stability of the lower extremity's joints, and muscle activation patterns of the lower extremity's muscles between fallers and non-fallers in the elderly women during walking. Method: Four elderly women (age: $74.5{\pm}5.2yrs.$; height: $152.1{\pm}5.6cm$; mass: $55.3{\pm}5.4kg$; preference walking speed: $1.19{\pm}0.06m/s$) who experienced falls within six months since experiment had been conducted (falls group) and thirty-six subjects ($74.2{\pm}3.09yrs.$; height: $153.6{\pm}4.9cm$; mass: $56.7{\pm}6.4kg$; preference walking speed: $1.24{\pm}0.10m/s$) who had no experience in falls (non-falls group) within this periods participated in this study. They were measured torque peaks of the knee and ankle joint using a Human Norm and while they were walking on a treadmill at their natural pace, kinematic variables and EMG signals were collected with using a 3-D motion capture system and a wireless EMG system, respectively. Lyapunov Exponent (LyE) was determined to observe the dynamic local stability of the lower extremity's joints, and muscles activation and their co-contraction index were also analysed from EMG signals. Hypotheses between falls and non-falls group were tested using paired t-test and Mann-Whitey. Level of significance was set at p<.05. Results: Local dynamic stability in the adduction-abduction movement of the knee joint was significantly lower in falling group than non-falling group (p<.05). Conclusion: In conclusion, muscles which act on the abduction-adduction movement of the knee joint need to be strengthened to prevent from potential falls during walking. However, a small number of samples for fallers make it difficult to generalize the results of this study.
