Abstract:

Foot muscle weakness is caused by disease, injury, inactivity and ageing, with disabling consequences. Exercise improves muscle weakness however, adherence to correct technique is challenging. Biofeedback may improve performance. Chapter One reviews the literature on small foot muscles, muscle function, measurement, causes and consequences of foot muscle weakness, and the role of exercise. Chapter Two is a systematic review on the relationship between foot pain, muscle strength and size. Eight studies were identified evaluating the relationship between foot pain and foot muscle strength or siz

Abstract:

Knowledge of the three dimensional shape of the human foot is important in the design of shoes to facilitate correct fit. Currently only the static shape of the foot is considered despite the fact that the foot undergoes changes in its shape, particularly in athletic pursuits, due to associated movements and loadings. Attempts, presented in research, have been made to measure dynamic foot shape. However, to date, measurements have been limited in detail as well as restricted to walking gait, as a result of the method. The work of this thesis aimed to develop a methodology that would be capable

The aim of the thesis was to collect baseline data and to investigating suitable physical tests and a self-rapport questionnaire. Collected data was used to find a routine measurement when investigating foot health, function and mobility among clients suffering from diabetes in Samoa. Twenty-one participants suffering from diabetes were included in the study. Clients answered the Foot function index (FFI) questionnaire and performed physical tests, consisting of Bergs balance scale (BBS) and Time up and go (TUG). Results from the physical tests revealed a great balance disturbance and mobility

The presented work demonstrates the process of designing a cheap, low cost three axis force sensor. Further it describes its integration in an array of multiple sensors to measure the distribution of forces acting on the sole of a prosthetic foot. The focus will be on easy manufacturing and common materials since the sensor will be integrated in a low cost prosthesis for lower limp amputees. Using the knowledge from bio mechanics and some basic assumptions for the later use, requirements for the project are derived.

Finding a boot that fits comfortably in a ski rental shop can be a difficult and tedious task for many people. Having properly fitting boots is important to prevent injuries in the user and reduce the risk of accidents happening on the mountain. The goal of this master thesis was to develop a tool that could make it easier for the customers in a ski rental shop to find the right boot for them. This was done by first sending out surveys to students at LTU and Swedish rental stores and interviewing rental store staff.

Abstract:

Obesity and being overweight have become growing concerns due to their association with many diseases, such as type II diabetes, several types of cancer and heart disease. Thus, obesity treatments have been the focus of a large number of recent studies. Because of these studies, researchers have found that the treatment of obesity and being overweight requires constant monitoring of the patient’s diet. Therefore, measuring food intake each day is considered an important step in the success of a healthy diet. Measuring daily food consumption for obese patients is one of the challenges in obesit

Food security in urban environments is becoming an increasingly important issue worldwide; urban expansion and urban infilling means that city populations are rising while the amount of available land for growing food is reducing. Accessibility of food, in regards to potential food growing space and food retail locations at the household level, is a key indicator for determining how resilient households are to food insecurity. This thesis investigates accessibility of food in urban environments, and a methodology has been developed that employs a non location-specific data structure that assig

The current public food assistance system in the United States depends primarily on delivery through vouchers provided to families who cannot afford adequate food due to economic hardship that they can use in retail markets to purchase food. However, how to conceptualize, define, measure, and determine the importance of access to food retail for the nearly 50 million food insecure people in the U.S. remains a challenge.

Abstract:

Syneresis is an integral part of cheese manufacture. The rate and extent of syneresis affect the properties of cheese. There are many factors that affect syneresis, but measured results vary because of inaccuracies in measuring techniques. To better control syneresis, an accurate mathematical description must be developed. Current mathematical models describing syneresis are limited because of inherent error in measuring techniques used to develop them. Developing an accurate model requires an accurate way to measure syneresis. The curd becomes a particle in a whey suspension when the coagulum

Abstract:

碩士<br>國立臺北科技大學<br>製造科技研究所<br>99<br>This study is focusing on developing a high contrast image of an innovated optical foot pressure measuring system. Once the high contrast image has been captured, the foot pressure information can be read out easily. There are three parts taken in this study. The first is the optical foot pressure measuring system construction. The resulting system is only 105mm height. The second is the high contrast image taken while the background is white and the area with pressure is black. The resulting quality indication value of the contrast image can reach q=2.17

碩士<br>中原大學<br>生物醫學工程研究所<br>105<br>The purpose of this study is to measure plantar dynamic and static parameters, to build a model to predict knee osteoarthritis, and to discuss changes of foot pressure parameters associated with degenerative arthritis. 30 patients with medial knee osteoarthritis were enrolled to the experiment group while 35 non-symptomatic healthy individuals were enrolled to the control group. The present study used the optical foot pressure measurement system to collect the path of the center of foot pressure in the gait cycle, to measure the travel time and offset angle of

Each step will cause many errors that lead to different sizes of dental restorations from the original design and make patients have abnormal occlusions or insufficient contact. By the dentists’ clinical experience, investing among all of the manufacture procedures of the restorations will make the wax pattern deformed because of thermal expansion. It will cause greatest error of the manufacture procedure of the restorations. In the dental treatment territory, a lot of

碩士<br>國立臺北科技大學<br>機電整合研究所<br>94<br>This study developed an apparatus and method that uses at least six digital cameras to capture images of the foot, which can reconstruct the 3D model of the foot rapidly. Users can only wear elastic socks, which have specially coded multicolored stripes or spots, and stands on the transparent plate of a platform. First from two parallel cameras under the transparent plate, the 3D contour about the sole of the foot can be computed and reconstructed through stereosis algorithm. Similarly, from the other four cameras at least around the upper part of the foot, f

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to determine the feasibility of conducting multiple household food inventories over the course of 30 days to examine weekly food variability. Household food availability influences the foods individuals choose to consume; therefore, by assessing the home food environment a better understanding of what people are eating can be obtained. Methods of measuring home food availability have been developed and tested in recent years; however most of these methods assess food availability on one occasion only. This study aimed to capture "usual" availability by using multi
