Abstract:
The role and the place of early use of technical means of rehabilitation in the system of complex rehabilitation of patients and disabled people owing to a military trauma is considered. Need of early providing the needing persons with technical means of rehabilitation is proved during recovery treatment, including before establishment by him of disability and formation of the individual program of rehabilitation and an abilitation of disabled people. The efficiency of the developed non-plaster technology of prosthetics manufacturing techniques of artificial limbs of the lower extremities is proved by express method, options of her execution are offered. The first option of production of products on this technology consists in use of polymeric silicone covers and the water-hardening polymeric bandage directly on the patient’s stump. The second option of prosthetics is applied at some defects and diseases of a stump excluding application of silicone covers and full contact individual reception sleeves. For this purpose at production of medical and training artificial limbs of a shin and hip adjustable demountable reception sleeves from thermolayers for right-and left-side amputating defects are used. These options of prosthetics by express method are innovative, are aimed at early rendering the prosthetic and orthopedic help to patients with amputating defects. At production of artificial limbs on these technology domestic materials, modular and not modular accessories are used. The modular complete set of medical and training artificial limbs provides fast and individual setting up the scheme of construction, the individual choice of combinations of functional elements taking into account group of physical activity of the patient, a possibility of replacement of a reception sleeve and any of product elements without withdrawal of an artificial limb at the user. In need of service of a product, for example repair, replacement of the module (artificial foot, a knee) there is no requirement of urgent production of a similar design. Adjustable reception sleeves for primary artificial limbs of a shin and hip in the form of a standard series and moisture-curing bandage can add the list of products of medical appointment in laying for expansion of medical institutions during the special period.

Abstract:
The spine of mammals aids in the stability of locomotion. Central Pattern Generators (CPGs) located in spinal cord can rapidly provide a rhythmic output signal during loss of sensory feedback on the basis of a simulated quadruped agent. In this paper, active spine of quadruped robot is shown to be extremely effective in motion. An active spine model based on the Parallel Kinematic Mechanism (PKM) system and biological phenomena is described. The general principles involved in constructing a neural network coupled with limbs and spine to solve specific problems are discussed. A CPG mathematical model based on Hopf nonlinear oscillators produces rhythmic signal during locomotion is described, where many parameters to be solved must be formulated in terms of desired stability, often subject to vertical stability analysis. Our simulations demonstrate that active spine with setting reasonable CPG parameters can reduce unnecessary lateral displacement during trot gait, improving the stability of quadruped robot. In addition, we demonstrate that physical prototype mechanism provides a framework which shows correctness of simulation, and stability can thus be easily embodied within locomotion.

Abstract:
The human foot consists of complex sets of joints. The adaptive nature of the human foot enables it to be stable on any uneven surface. It is important to have such adaptive capabilities in the artificial prosthesis to achieve most of the essential movements for lower-limb amputees. However, many existing lower-limb prostheses lack the adaptive nature. This paper reviews lower-limb adaptive foot prostheses. In order to understand the design concepts of adaptive foot prostheses, the biomechanics of human foot have been explained. Additionally, the requirements and design challenges are investigated and presented. In this review, adaptive foot prostheses are classified according to actuation method. Furthermore, merits and demerits of present-day adaptive foot prostheses are presented based on the hardware construction. The hardware configurations of recent adaptive foot prostheses are analyzed and compared. At the end, potential future developments are highlighted.

Abstract:
The acquired defects of the top jaw owing to injuries or surgeries concerning new growths, in most cases lead to violations of functional and esthetic character. Rational prosthetics of this category ofpatients is important in a complex of rehabilitation actions. The greatest difficulty in orthopedic treatment is presented by defects of the top jaw in the presence of the oro-nasal message. The purpose of work was improvement of quality of orthopedic treatment ofpatients with the acquired defects of the top jaw. In article use option for production of difficult and maxillary artificial limbs obturators of the polyamide constructional material reinforced by the nanomodified dioxide of the titan is considered. Production of difficult and maxillary artificial limbs according to indications from the polyamide material Vertex ThermoSens allows to enter an artificial limb into retentsionny zones, remote for rigid materials, that improves his fixing and obturiruyushchy characteristics, lack of metal elements of fixing considerably improves esthetic parameters of an artificial limb. There is technically easily feasible possibility ofproduction of the facilitated designs of difficult and maxillary artificial limbs, without loss of strength characteristics, due to reinforcing of basic material the nanostructured dioxide of the titan. As a result of rational prosthetics ofpatients with the acquired defects of the top jaw psychological and social rehabilitation is reached them.

Abstract:
The primate order of animals is investigated for clues in the design of humanoid robots. The pursuit is directed with a theory that kinematics, musculature, perception, and cognition can be optimized for specific tasks by varying the proportions of limbs, and in particular, the points of branching in kinematic trees such as the primate skeleton. Called the Bifurcated Chain Hypothesis, the theory is that the branching proportions found in humans may be superior to other animals and primates for the tasks of dexterous manipulation and other human specialties. The primate taxa are defined, contemporary primate evolution hypotheses are critiqued, and variations within the order are noted. The kinematic branching points of the torso, limbs and fingers are studied for differences in proportions across the order, and associated with family and genus capabilities and behaviors. The human configuration of a long waist, long neck, and short arms is graded using a kinematic workspace analysis and a set of design axioms for mobile manipulation robots. It scores well. The re-emergence of the human waist, seen in early prosimians and monkeys for arboreal balance, but lost in the terrestrial pongidae, is postulated as benefiting human dexterity. The human combination of an articulated waist and neck will be shown to enable the use of smaller arms, achieving greater regions of workspace dexterity than the larger limbs of gorillas and other hominoidea.

Abstract A cataract is a disease of the 21st century. In highly developed countries, the opacification of the intraocular lens is removed and replaced with an implant. This article discusses the essential aspects related to the construction of implants that imitate the natural lens of the eyeball. The research was carried out owing to X-ray microtomography. Observer design differences in the two lenses' structures contribute to the implant's quality in question. The study aimed to check and compare two types of implants in terms of the design and manufacturing quality of the given lenses. The common element of the implants in question was their material and manufacturer. Lenses of the same material were used to maintain the same optics. The results gave a comparison in terms of the quality of the product in terms of the creation and modelling of the lenses than the properties of the material itself from which they were made.

Abstract:
Human balance and locomotion control is highly complex and not well understood. To understand how the nervous system controls balance and locomotion works, we test how the body responds to controlled perturbations, the results are analyzed, and control models are developed. However, to recreate this system of control there is a need for a robot with human-like kinematics. Unfortunately, such a robotic testbed does not exist despite the numerous applications such a design would have in mobile robotics, healthcare, and prosthetics. This thesis presents a robotic testbed model of human lower legs. By using MRI and CT scans, I designed joints that require lower force for actuation, are more wear resistant, and are less prone to catastrophic failure than a traditional revolute (or pinned) joints. The result of using this process is the design, construction, and performance analysis of a biologically inspired knee joint for use in bipedal robotics. For the knee joint, the design copies the condylar surfaces of the distal end of the femur and utilizes the same crossed four-bar linkage design the human knee uses. The joint includes a changing center of rotation, a screw-home mechanism, and patella; these are characteristics of the knee that are desirable to copy for bipedal robotics. The design was calculated to have an average sliding to rolling ratio of 0.079, a maximum moment arm of 2.7 inches and a range of motion of 151 degrees. This should reduce joint wear and have kinematics similar to the human knee. I also designed and constructed novel, adjustably-damped hip and ankle joints that use braided pneumatic actuators. These joints provide a wide range of motion and exhibit the same change in stiffness that human joints exhibit as flexion increases, increasing stability, adaptability, and controllability. The theoretical behaviors of the joints make them desirable for use in mobile robotics and should provide a lightweight yet mechanically strong connection that is resistant to unexpected perturbations and catastrophic failure. The joints also bridge the gap between completely soft robotics and completely rigid robotics. These joints will give researchers the ability to test different control schemes and will help to determine how human balance is achieved. They will also lead to robots that are lighter and have lower power requirements while increasing the adaptability of the robot. When applying these design principles to joints used for prosthetics, we reduce the discomfort of the wearer and reduce the effort needed to move. Both of which are serious issues for individuals who need to wear a prosthetic device.

Abstract:
El presente trabajo aborda la especificación, diseño e implementación de organizaciones abiertas de agentes. Se defiende que tales organizaciones pueden ser diseñadas e implementadas de manera efectiva como organizaciones electrónicas institucionalizadas (instituciones electrónicas) compuestas de un gran número de agentes heterogéneos (tanto humanos como software) adoptando diversos roles e interactuando por medio de ilocuciones. Adicionalmente postulamos que el diseño y la implementación de instituciones electrónicas deben ser guiadas por una metodología bien fundamentada. Es por ello que proponemos una especificación formal de instituciones electrónicas que fundamente su diseño, análisis e implementación
A continuación presentamos un modelo computacional que emerge de y fielmente captura la formalización resultante de la noción de institución electrónica. Nuestro modelo computacional se define y explota sobre la base de la noción de mediación para fundamentar la construcción de infraestructuras para instituciones electrónicas. Así, proponemos construir instituciones electrónicas a partir de agentes institucionales ---agentes en los que la institución delega sus servicios e interagentes ---agentes software autónomos dedicados a mediar la interacción entre cada agente y la sociedad de agentes en el marco de una institución electrónica. De esta manera las instituciones electrónicas son concebidas computacionalmente como instituciones electrónicas mediadas por agentes, ya que tanto los servicios institucionales como las interacciones son mediados por agentes.
Ilustramos la construcción práctica de instituciones electrónicas mediadas por agentes describiendo el desarrollo de una casa electrónica de subastas inspirada en las lonjas de pescado tradicionales donde agentes heterogéneos (humanos y software) pueden comerciar.
Finalmente presentamos la evolución de la casa de subastas electrónicas a una plataforma para la experimentación en escenarios de subasta. Mostramos cómo en tales escenarios agentes compradores y vendedores de diferentes complejidades participan en subastas definidas de acuerdo a unas condiciones de mercado estandarizadas, siendo evaluados en función de su rendimiento en el mercado. Desde nuestro punto de vista tales escenarios competitivos constituyen interesantes y ricos dominios en los que estudiar cuestiones generales relacionadas con arquitecturas de agentes que comercian y, más específicamente, con sus comportamientos estratégicos.
This thesis focuses on the specification, design and implementation of open agent organisations. We argue that open agent organisations can be effectively designed and implemented as institutionalised electronic organisations (electronic institutions) composed of a vast amount of heterogeneous (human and software) agents playing different roles and interacting by means of speech acts. Then we take the view that the design and development of electronic institutions must be guided by a principled methodology. For this purpose we propose a formal specification of electronic institutions that founds their design, analysis and development.
Next we present a computational model that arises from and fully captures the resulting formalisation of electronic institution. Our computational model strongly relies on and exploits the notion of mediation for founding the realisation of electronic institutions' infrastructures. Thus we propose how to fully realise an electronic institution based on institutional agents ---the agents to which the institution delegates its services--- and interagents ---autonomous software agents devoted to mediating the interaction between each agent and the agent society in the framework of an electronic institution. Therefore electronic institutions are computationally conceived as agent-mediated electronic institutions since both institutional services and interactions are mediated by agents.
We illustrate the practical realisation of agent-mediated electronic institutions by describing the development of an electronic auction house inspired by the age old institution of the fish market where heterogeneous (software and human) agents may trade.
Lastly we present the evolution of the electronic auction house into a test-bed for experimenting with auction-based trading scenarios. We show how in these scenarios trading agents of arbitrary complexity participate in auctions under a collection of standardised market conditions and are evaluated according to their actual market performance. We argue that such competitive situations constitute convenient problem domains in which to study issues related with trading agent architectures in general and agent-based trading strategies in particular.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: In this thesis the design and testing of the baseband components of a modem intended for use as a telemetry and control link for a low earth orbit satellite is presented. This includes parts of the physical layer as well as a basic data-link layer. Binary phase-shift keying (BPSK) is used as the modulation scheme and is realised by making use of software defined radio on a standard x86 computer with digital to analogue and analogue to digital converters that use a universal serial bus (USB) connection. The data-link layer makes use of a basic framing scheme and provides bit synchronisation, an automatic repeat request (ARQ) system and Bose Chaudhuri Hocquenghem (BCH) forward error correction (FEC). The ARQ system ensures that data is delivered reliably and the FEC improves the system’s performance in noisy conditions. A prototype system was developed to test the performance of the individual layers as well as the system as a whole. For testing purposes the Linux Internet Protocol (IP) stack is used as higher network layers. Radio frequency hardware developed by Verschaeve [1] modulates the signal away from baseband, transmits it over the air and receives it.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: In hierdie tesis word die ontwerp en toetsing van die basisband komponente van ‘n modem, bedoel vir gebruik op ‘n satelliet in ‘n lae-aarde wentelbaan, bespreek. Die ontwerp sluit dele van die fisiese vlak sowel as ‘n verbindingsvlak in. Binêre faseskuifsleuteling word gebruik as die modulasieskema en word verwesenlik deur gebruik te maak van sagteware gedefinieerde radio. Dit voer uit op ’n standaard x86 rekenaar wat deur middel van USB gekoppel is aan ’n digitaal-na-analoog- en ’n analoog-na-digitaal-omsetter. Die verbindingsvlak het ‘n eenvoudige ramingskema. Dit voorsien bis sinkronisasie, die hersending van verlore rame en Bose Chaudhuri Hocquenghem (BCH) voorwaartse foutverbetering. Die hersending van verlore rame verseker dat data betroubaar oorgedra kan word en foutverbetering verbeter die stelsel se vermoëns in ruiserige toestande. ‘n Prototipe stelsel is ontwikkel om die vermoëns van die individuele vlakke, sowel as die stelsel as ’n geheel, te toets. Tydens toetsing is die Linux Internet Protokol stapel gebruik vir die hoër netwerk vlakke. Radio komponente wat deur Verschaeve [1] ontwikkel was is gebruik om die sein uit te saai en te ontvang.

Abstract:
In this thesis, a new approach combining neural networks and genetic algorithms is presented for microwave design. In this method, an accurate neural network model is developed from the experimental data. This neural network model is used to perform sensitivity analysis and derive response surfaces. An innovative technique is then applied in which genetic algorithms are coupled with the neural network model to assist in synthesis and optimization. The proposed method is used for modeling and analysis of circuit parameters for flip chip interconnects up to 35 GHz, as well as for design of multilayer inductors and capacitors at 1.9 GHz and 2.4 GHz. The method was also used to synthesize mm wave low pass filters in the range of 40-60 GHz. The devices obtained from layout parameters predicted by the neuro-genetic design method yielded electrical response close to the desired value (95% accuracy). The proposed method also implements a weighted priority scheme to account for tradeoffs in microwave design. This scheme was implemented to synthesize bandpass filters for 802.11a and HIPERLAN wireless LAN applications in the range of 5-6 GHz. This research also develops a novel neuro-genetic design centering methodology for yield enhancement and design for manufacturability of microwave devices and circuits. A neural network model is used to calculate yield using Monte Carlo methods. A genetic algorithm is then used for yield optimization. The proposed method has been used for yield enhancement of SiGe heterojunction bipolar transistor and mm wave voltage-controlled oscillator. It results in significant yield enhancement of the SiGe HBTs (from 25 % to 75 %) and VCOs (from 8 % to 85 %). The proposed method is can be extended for device, circuit, package, and system level integrated co-design since it can handle a large number of design variables without any assumptions about the component behavior. The proposed algorithm could be used by microwave community for design and optimization of microwave circuits and systems with greater accuracy while consuming less computational time.

Abstract:
The overall objective of this thesis is to build an integrated, inexpensive, human-sized humanoid robot from scratch that looks and behaves like a human. More specifically, my goal is to build an android robot called Marie Curie robot that can act like a human actor in the Portland Cyber Theater in the play Quantum Debate with a known script of every robot behavior. In order to achieve this goal, the humanoid robot need to has degrees of freedom (DOF) similar to human DOFs. Each part of the Curie robot was built to achieve the goal of building a complete humanoid robot. The important additional constraints of this project were: 1) to build the robot from available components, 2) to minimize costs, and 3) to be simple enough that the design can be replicated by non-experts, so they can create robot theaters worldwide. Furthermore, the robot appears lifelike because it executes two main behaviors like a human being. The first behavior is tracking where the humanoid robot uses a tracking algorithm to follow a human being. In other words, the tracking algorithm allows the robot to control its neck using the information taken from the vision system to look at the nearest human face. In addition, the robot uses the same vision system to track labeled objects. The second behavior is grasping where the inverse kinematics (IK) is calculated so the robot can move its hand to a specific coordinate in the surrounding space. IK gives the robot the ability to move its end-effector (hand) closer to how humans move their hands.

Abstract:
AbstractThe first basic ingredient of heuristics is to build a solution. So, a first metaheuristic approach is to improve the process of building solutions. This chapter presents construction learning mechanisms. A typical example is artificial ants systems. Another technique is vocabulary building.

Abstract:
A prosthetic limb is an artificial device that replaces missing body part, or parts. Prosthetic limbs are used for many different applications however the application of prosthetic limbs focused in this paper categorized as prosthetic enhancements. Prosthetic enhancements are special prosthetic that allow the patients to participate in more rigorous recreational activities, such as running. These prosthetic limbs now have started to arise in major sporting events like the Olympics. Some researchers say that the legs use only 25% of the energy that an able bodied leg would use. High performance prosthetic running legs made of carbon fiber, show great advantages over their metal counterparts. Including being lighter and being able to retain more strain energy, current carbon fiber running blades offered by Ossur provide the best performance in the market. In this study, prosthetic racing legs known as blades were analyzed using finite element analysis technique. Performance improvements of these blades were sought by creating mechanical models of the current Ossur products using the finite element analysis software ANSYS and incorporating better performing composite materials into the mechanical simulations. Two different composite materials have taken in consideration by which the legs are created from, these are thermoplastic values for polyethylene epoxy and Vinylester. The use of a new composite material reduces the strain in each of the existing blade geometries, and it permits fewer layers of carbon fiber to be required in the construction of these running blades, which reduces the weight of each leg. Three different blade designs such as Cheetah blade, Flex-Run blade and Flex-Sprint blade have been considered in this study. Also two different loading conditions on the blade such as standing and running conditions have been considered.

Abstract:
This paper investigates both stiffness analysis and synthesis problems using a physical prototype of one SPS orthogonal parallel mechanism. This parallel mechanism is supported with line-type constraint limbs. In the stiffness analysis, a reciprocal relationship between motions and wrenches is used to design layouts of constraint limbs and construct the corresponding stiffness matrix. In the stiffness synthesis, the developed stiffness matrix is decomposed to obtain configurations of constraint limbs based on existing synthesis algorithms, including direct-recursion and matrix-partition approaches. It is revealed the line-vector based matrix-partition approach can establish an one-to-one correspondence between synthesized results and constraint limbs of the parallel mechanism. Subsequently both types of synthesis approaches are applied to decomposing the developed constraint stiffness matrix. The comparison results suggest the modified matrix-partition approach can obtain decomposed constraint limbs exactly the same as those used to construct the stiffness matrix.

Abstract:
Based on the newly invented reconfigurable Hooke joint which changes the joint property, this paper investigates synthesis of limbs using the new joint based on constraint analysis. The procedure of the limb synthesis is put forward to fully use the property of the new joint for generating the reconfigurable limbs. Further, the paper presents a way of synthesising the parallel mechanism with metamorphic characteristics by starting from the aim at mobility-change. This is then integrated into the forward-based limb synthesis. A general procedure is proposed and applied to construct two classes of metamorphic parallel mechanisms. Their topological configuration change is investigated by examining the constraint change stemming from the phase alteration of the reconfigurable Hooke joint.

Abstract:
Current commercially available motorized replacement limbs rely on the activation of remaining muscle tissue or a different portion of the body to operate joints in the prosthetic, which requires training to use and may never feel natural. Research to improve artificial limb technology is focused on using implants to monitor electrical activity in the nervous system or rerouting nerve endings to healthy muscle tissue, both of which require a medical procedure to be performed. This paper presents results of research which has been focused on the feasibility of using a non-invasive prosthetic control system that utilizes a hybrid of feedforward and feedback sensors. This research examines the correlation between brain activity across the primary motor cortex and muscle activity during upper body limb movement. The hybrid sensory system is composed of an optical imager for the detection of localized brain activities, electroencephalography (EEG) and electromyography (EMG) sensors. This paper will present design of the sensory system, the proposed control architecture, and human subject results. The improved accuracy of the brain intention determination algorithm as well as integration with a learning control loop will be presented and discussed.
