Full textAction forces have been identified as risk factors. Therefore, the collection and analysis of action forces is an essential part of the ergonomic evaluation. Up to now, there was a lack of a standardized and systematic approach to evaluate action forces, especially in the automotive production. Thus, in the present thesis a methodical approach is described to evaluate action forces systematically. The thesis is divided into four studies. The first study contains the identification of the variety of action forces in the different manufacturing areas of automotive production. The second study describes the detailed analysis of action forces in the assembly shop, which is the manufacturing area with the highest count of action forces in the automotive production. The third study describes the direct measurement of action forces in laboratory conditions. The action forces are applied by a testing machine. The fourth study consists of the direct measurement of action forces, which are applied by subjects. Thereby, the methodical approach to perform direct measurements has been evaluated. The findings of the thesis can be used as a guideline, to evaluate action forces in the automotive production. Also the findings highlight the potential for further research projects

Full textThe mechanics of membrane nanotubes (without the presence of the cytoskeleton), especially the force needed to form and maintain a nanotube, are now well understood. But, although in the cell the nanotubes are often coupled with actin, its action mechanism on such structures is unknown. The objective of this thesis is to understand how actin polymerization dynamics affect the growth and stability of membrane nanotubes and may contribute to their scission. The project will address two main questions: - How the force to maintain a membrane nanotube evolves in presence of a reconstituted actin cytoskeleton? - How the structure of the actin network (mesh size, composition, dynamic) determines its mechanical effect on the nanotube? Does actin dynamics stabilize the nanotube? Are the forces generated by actin polymerization able to cut nanotubes? Does the structure of the actin network explain these two opposite effects? What is the effect of adding myosins, molecular motors able to create additional mechanical stress in the network? These inseparable issues will be studied in collaboration between the teams of C. Sykes at the Institut Curie (Paris), and C. Campillo and S. Labdi in LAMBE (Evry)

Full textThis work is focused on the thematic of the maintenance of the dynamic stability of off-road vehicles. Indeed, driving vehicles in off-road environment remains a dangerous and harsh activity because of the variable and bad grip conditions associated to a large diversity of terrains. Driving difficulties may be also encountered when considering huge machines with possible reconfiguration of their mechanical properties (changes in mass and centre of gravity height for instance). As a consequence, for the sole agriculture sector, several fatal injuries are reported per year in particular due to rollover situations. Passive protections (ROllover Protective Structure - ROPS) are installed on tractors to reduce accident consequences. However, protection capabilities of these structures are very limited and the latter cannot be embedded on bigger machines due to mechanical design limitations. Furthermore, driving assistance systems (such as ESP or ABS) have been deeply studied for on-road vehicles and successfully improve safety. These systems usually assume that the vehicle Center of Gravity (CG) height is low and that the vehicles are operating on smooth and level terrain. Since these assumptions are not satisfied when considering off-road vehicles with a high CG, such devices cannot be applied directly. Consequently, this work proposes to address this research problem by studying relevant stability metrics able to evaluate in real time the rollover risk in order to develop active safety devices dedicated to off-road vehicles. In order to keep a feasible industrialization of the conceived active safety device, the use of compatible sensors with the cost of the machines was one of the major commercial and societal requirements of the project. The ambitious goal of this study was achieved by different routes. First, a multi-scale modeling approach allowed to characterize the dynamic evolution of off-road vehicles. This partial dynamic approach has offered the advantage of developing sufficiently accurate models to be representative of the actual behavior of the machine but having a relatively simple structure for high-performance control systems. Then, a comparative study of the advantages and drawbacks of the three main families of metrics found in the literature has helped to highlight the interest of dynamic stability metrics at the expense to categories of so-called static and empirical stability criteria. Finally, a thorough analysis of dynamic metrics has facilitated the choice of three indicators (Longitudinal and Lateral Load Transfer (LLT), Force Angle Stability Measurement (FASM) and Dynamic Energy Stability Measurement (DESM)) that are representative of an imminent rollover risk. The following of the document is based on the observation theory for estimating online of variables which are not directly measurable in off-road environment such as slip and cornering stiffnesses. Coupled to the dynamic models of the vehicle, the theory of observers has helped therefore to estimate in real time the tire-soil interaction forces which are necessaries for evaluating indicators of instability. The coupling of these multiscale models to the observation theory has formed an original positioning capable to break the complexity of the characterization of the stability of vehicles having complex and uncertain dynamics.

We used the IR Laser to trap and manipulate particles and hemocytes in the different medium and the influence between the object and viscosity of medium can be measured by experimentation. We installed an “inverted-embedded optical tweezers system” that combined the optical tweezers and the inverted microscopy, and possessed the ability to observe and manipulate simultaneously. The content contains the introduction of optical tweezers and the setup and results of experiment. We test the feasibility of this study by using visible laser and fluorescent beads which are easier to be observed in the installing stage. Then, in the process of experiment, we applied a less harmful IR laser for the biological object as the light source. Finally, we compared with their acting force. The goal of this experiment is to trap hemocytes by optical tweezers in blood (serum) and measured their acting force reliably. It was obtained that the acting force constant K=38.9nN/μm, acting force F=0.554pN and the influence radius was 14.2μm when the 6μm bead suspended in water and the power source was 6.5mW. The constant K=56.4nN/μm, force F=0.368pN and the influence radius was 6.51μm when the 9μm WBC (White Blood Cell) cell suspended in serum and the power source was 4.5mW. The constant K=12.8nN/μm, force F=0.168pN and the influence radius was 12.61μm when the 12μm blood cancer cell suspended in water and the power source was 4.5mW. The acting force would be enhanced when the laser’s power was increased and the acting force of the object suspend in serum would be larger than that suspend in water at the same conditions.

Full textProper cell shape is a precondition for the proper performance of specialized cells and changes of cell shape are paramount for the development from a cell cluster to an adult organism. Cell shape can be regulated biochemically and also biophysically, e. g., by involvement of cellular force generation and spatial confinement. However, the understanding of the interaction between exterior space, cellular form, and function is incomplete. Therefore, the aim of this thesis was to thoroughly characterize cells in spatial confinement in order to better understand how cell morphology and force generation can be linked. During the course of this work, the adaptation of human primary cells (HUVECs) to lateral constraints was investigated. Cells were seeded on both glass and hydrogel substrates which had been micropatterned with fibronectin by microcontact printing. The structures were composed of stripes with varying width (5–80 μm). After initial adhesion had taken place (> 1 h), cell morphology, actin cytoskeleton architecture, and cell traction forces were quantified. In addition, measurements were performed on live cells in order to better understand the dynamics of the actin cytoskeleton and the cell traction forces. Laterally confined cells showed both structural and functional changes. Because cell length was only weakly dependent on stripe width, cells in strong lateral confinement were highly elongated and had decreased spread areas, which also affected the nucleus. The orientation of actin fibers was strongly linked to cell elongation. In cells on narrow stripes, a reduced actin cytoskeleton was observed, i.e., with a lower degree of interconnectivity. Time resolved analysis revealed an inward transport of actin fibers. Furthermore, cell force generation was shown to be impaired on narrow stripes, most likely due to decreased cell spread area. At the same time, force polarization strongly increased in cells in strong lateral confinement. This study demonstrated how various cellular parameters, both linked to cell structure and function, are influenced by lateral confinement and by each other, thereby contributing to a better understanding of cell adaptation to spatial constraint.
