Chattez avec Graph Search
Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
The ankle is one of the most injured joint in the body. However, it remains a new field of study in biomedical orthopedics. With the increased life span, more people suffer from arthosis and joint problems. That is why the improvements done in arthroplasty ...
This paper introduces the mechanical design and the control concept of the Series Compliant Articulated Robotic Leg ScarlETH which was developed at ETH Zurich for fast, efficient, and versatile locomotion. Inspired by biological systems, we seek to achieve ...
Collision detection among virtual objects is one of the main concerns in virtual reality and computer graphics. Usually the methods developed for collision detection are for either very general cases or very specific applications. The first main goal of th ...
In this paper, we present a case study using a spreadsheet-like interface for exploring biomedical datasets generated by a biomechanical model of the hip. The case we analyze here is an osteotomy corrective surgery that reorients the femoral body in relati ...
In this work a 3D musculoskeletal model of the knee joint, that can simulate a squat movement, has been developed. Such a model would be useful to understand the biomechanics of the knee. The model consisted of all the the bones with their articular surfac ...
Spatial and temporal parameters of gait have clinical relevance in the assessment of motor pathologies, particularly in orthopaedics. A new gait analysis system is proposed which consists of (a) an ambulatory device (Physilog(R)) including a set of miniatu ...
We present a new contour segmentation method for femoral head detection in CT images. The principal idea underlying our approach is to represent the contour using active rays. Each ray has internal energy (continuity and smoothness constraints), as well as ...
Hip mechanical simulation for estimating pressures within the soft tissues during the loads and motions of daily activities is a common approach to investigate hip joint pathology. Many computational approaches estimate the pressure and contact pressures v ...

The objective of the work presented here is to develop a low cost active knee prosthetic devices as real time embedded system which utilizes the available biological motor control circuit properly integrated with a Central Pattern Generator (CPG) aided con ...
Objective: To investigate the correlation between objective and subjective evaluation of patients with total hip replacement. Design: Prospective preliminary trial comparing the Western Ontario and McMaster University questionnaire ( WOMAC) and gait analys ...
