Abstract:
A number of parameters have been identified as characteristic of the walking pattern in patients with INPH. Most of these have been identified through qualitative surveys and manually conducted test batteries. In order to obtain quantitative, standardized and objective measures, which enable studies based on larger patient populations and comparable results, there is a need for a user-friendly system that can measure specific key parameters over time in a reliable manner in everyday clinical work. Step height, width and the variability in the gait cycle are such parameters which are interestin

Abstract:
A wearable system that can be used in different settings to collect gait parameters on subjects with a mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) would allow clinicians to collect needed data of subjects outside of the laboratory setting. Mild traumatic brain injuries stem from a number of causes such as illnesses, strokes, accidents or battlefield traumas. These injuries can cause issues with everyday tasks, such as gait, and are linked with vestibular dysfunction [1]. Different wearable sensor systems were analyzed prior to starting this study along with relevant gait parameters associated with mild

Cerebral palsy is the most common cause of chronic childhood motor disability and it describes a group of permanent disorders affecting movement and posture. Spasticity is often the dominant motor disorder and it causes secondary musculoskeletal problems that, occurring at multiple levels, affect the quality and efficiency of gait. The instrumented gait analysis is an assessment tool that allows a precise quantification of gait characteristics, through objective data that cannot be appreciated visually.

Number of individuals undergoing lower limb amputation around the world is increasing every year due to vascular diseases or complications associated with conditions such as diabetes and trauma.

Following an amputation, prescription of prosthetic devices serves as an important step in improving the amputees’ QOL.

Although poor walking is the most common symptom of peripheral artery disease (PAD), reported results are inconsistent when comparing gait parameters between PAD patients and healthy controls. This inconsistency may be due to frailty, which is highly prevalent among PAD patients.

With the appropriate gait parameter as an index, gait parameter extraction can provide many practical implementations in our daily life and help human. There were some work using the camera system for the research on the gait parameter extraction in the past. The method has the disadvantage of restricting to indoor environmental settings. There are also many double- integration methods using the data from

Abstract:
Passive dynamic walking is a gait developed, partially or in whole, by the energy provided by gravity. Research on passive dynamic bipedal walking helps develop an understanding of bipedal walking mechanics. Moreover, experimental passive dynamic research provides a base to compare and validate simulation results. An improved kneed bipedal walking mechanism and an improved measurement system are used to study the passive gait patterns. Gait measurements are conducted on the treadmill to evaluate the effects of the treadmill angle of inclination, mass distribution of the biped, treadmill belt s

Abstract:
Gait analysis is emerging as an effective tool to detect an incipient neurodegenerative disease or to monitor its progression. It has been shown that gait disturbances are an early indicator for cognitive impairments and can predict progression to neurodegenerative diseases. Furthermore, gait performance is a predictor of fall status, morbidity and mortality. Instrumented gait analysis provides quantitative measures to support the investigation of gait pathologies and the definition of targeted rehabilitation programs. In this framework, technologies such as inertial sensors are well accepte

Abstract:
本論文以表面肌電(Surface Electromypgraphy, SEMG)信號中動態信號能被獲取為前提,把被處理過的表面肌電信號轉變成步態參數 (gait parameters). 我們利用一些便攜式步態測量裝置,如加速度計,陀螺儀和腳踏開關和表面肌電圖測量裝置去採集步態參數。信號的處理和生物信息(身體的動態特性)轉換都加以討論和解釋,如濾波和預測肌肉的收縮等。<br>我們利用被採集步態參數作步態分析,並發現表面肌電信號內的動態信號的頻率特性能夠代表運動過程中的非恆久步態參數,如行走時的足部擺動的期間 (period of swing phase)、行走時的足部站立的期間 (period of stance phase) 和行走時的步幅期間 (period of stride)。<br>最後,我們發現可以利用線性預測 (linear prediction) 和閾值分析 (threshold analysis) 處理表面肌電信號以便獲得三種非恆久步態參數。根據我們的觀察,行走時足部擺動的期間可以被股直肌(rectus femoris, RF)的表面肌電信號捕獲,行走時的步幅期間可以被二頭肌股(bicep femoris, BF)的表面肌電信號捕獲,而行走時的足部站立的期間則可由BF和RF輸出的結果的平均值所捕獲。因此,表面肌電信號是可以作為一種獲取非恆久步態參數的工具。<br>

Abstract:
碩士<br>國立交通大學<br>機械工程系所<br>101<br>Hemiplegia is commonly caused by stroke and usually leads to an asymmetrical gait. Both before and after rehabilitation, gait assessments need to be made to determine whether the patients can do rehabilitation or how effective the rehabilitation program was. Among all gait assessments, symmetry is an important gait characteristic. Previous researchers have used inertial sensors to quantify gait symmetry, but there has been no previous study using whole waveform patterns of one stride to quantify gait symmetry in swing phase and stance phase, separately.
