A Novel Approach to Reducing Number of Sensing Units for Wearable Gait Analysis Systems

Kamiar Aminian, Brigitte Jolles-Haeberli, Arash Salarian

Gait analysis methods to estimate spatiotemporal measures, based on two, three or four gyroscopes attached on lower limbs have been discussed in the literature. The most common approach to reduce the number of sensing units is to simplify the underlying bi ...

Relationship between interfacial micromotion and bone density around cementless hip implant

Valérie Parvex

The hip is one of the most injured joint in the body with ageing. Osteoarthritis and degenerative diseases often lead to the necessity of a total hip arthroplasty in order to reduce pain and increase mobility. The advantage of cementless implants resides i ...

Development of an Assistive Motorized Hip Orthosis

Hannes Bleuler, Reymond Clavel, Mohamed Bouri, Jeremy Olivier, Amalric Louis Ortlieb

With the increase of life expectancy, a higher number of elderly need assistance to maintain their mobility and their independance. The hip joint is crucial for walking and is problematic for a large number of aged people. In this paper we present a novel ...

Simulation of total ankle replacement using numerical modeling

Sara Molins Cabaní

The ankle is a complex joint of the human body which is most often affected by trauma. Osteoarthritis is a joint disease that can require surgical intervention and when it affects the ankle there are two options to achieve pain relief. For years ankle fusi ...

Sensitivity of hip tissues contact evaluation to the methods used for estimating the hip joint center of rotation

Daniel Thalmann, Ronan Boulic, Jérôme Schmid, Ehsan Arbabi

Computer-based simulations of human hip joints generally include investigating contacts happening among soft or hard tissues during hip movement. In many cases, hip movement is approximated as rotation about an estimated hip center. In this paper, we inves ...

Development of patient-specific numerical musculoskeletal model to assess patellar resurfacing

Francesc Levrero Florencio

Osteoarthritis is the most common joint disease, with the knee being the most commonly affected joint. It is usually found in elder population, affecting more than a third of the people aged over 65 years old. Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is the most sati ...

2012

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 ...

Dislocation in total knee arthroplasty

Aurélien Gallice

Mobile-bearing total knee arthroplasty has potential advantages over fixed- bearing prostheses that may lead to an improvement of the range of motion and inferior long-term polyethylene wear. However, the potential disadvantages include the dislocation of ...

2010

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 ...

EPFL2009

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 ...
