Abstract:

Endo surgiclip instrument is the biomedical instrument that can be applied for endoscopic surgery to assist surgeons in homeostasis and secure mucosal gap surfaces during surgical operations. Since some clinic feedbacks show the surgiclip drop-off incidents which can potentially sever organ and tissue, the improvement of endo surgiclip instrument has been made in these years. Since few research papers were involved in the study of endo surgiclip instrument performance via mathematical modeling and computational simulation, currently some instrumental modifications are mainly based on clinic lab tests which prolong the improvement cycle and increase additional manufacturing cost. This paper introduces a new biomedical surgiclip instrument based on mathematical modeling, computer-aided simulation, and prototype testing. The analytic methodology proposed in this paper can help engineers in biomedical industry develop and improve biomedical instrument. Compared to the current conventional surgiclip instruments, this new surgiclip instrument can properly assist surgeon in surgical procedure with less operational force and no surgiclip drop-off incident. The prototype has also been built and tested. Both computational simulation and prototype testing show close results which validate the feasibility of this newly developed endo surgiclip instrument and the methodologies of mathematical modeling based computational simulation proposed in this paper.

Abstract:

The applications of technology in instrument design contribute to the resulting sound on many levels, particularly in the context of new evolutions representing the traditional instruments of our culture. Materials technology is seldom given consideration in the description of Western string instruments, but our choices of woods, metals and synthetics can dramatically alter the sound without altering the substance of instrumental performance. In the design of modified string instruments which mimic features of natural acoustic predecessors, new technology is applied on many levels. A taxonomy is proposed for the past, present and future of instrument design. Due consideration is given to the music which results from the new sound world, especially that involving interactive electronic processing. The advantages and disadvantages of directions in instrument design for the future are evaluated within the proposed schema. Some extended techniques on the cello are proposed to be further extended with electronics, and audio examples and descriptions are provided. A model for future collaborations between composer, performer and engineer is proposed.

Abstract:

Biological macromolecules are becoming increasingly important as a target for pharmaceutical research. Structural examination of this class of compounds is vital, both in terms of understanding the three-dimensional structures these molecules form as well as for quality control of bio-pharmaceutical products. UV polarised spectroscopy, such as circular dichroism (CD) is a powerful tool for this form of analysis, rapidly providing the user with structural information on the sample. The ease of data analysis combined with its non-destructive nature make UV polarised spectroscopy an ideal tool for this purpose. However, limitations in the current instrumentation, especially in terms of sample handling have placed significant barriers in the way of fully realising the potential of these techniques. To address the weaknesses of the currently available UV polarised spectroscopy accessories, new devices have been designed and tested to increase the utility of such techniques. A low volume capillary sample holder has been developed which significantly reduces the sample requirements for circular dichroism without loss of signal quality. This advance has been coupled with an HPLC auto-sampler to create a device that can process 96-well and in some cases 384- well plates. This device opens up a host of new applications for polarised UV spectroscopy, including refolding screening as well as freeing up user time. Additionally, a high precision demountable micro scale cuvette has been developed that reproducibly assembles to the same path length every time. The percentage error of path-length for this new cuvette is of the same order as currently commercially available 1 mm cuvettes. This new accessory should prove highly advantageous for the bio-pharmaceutical industry, as it allows accurate path-length CD analysis for high concentration samples. Additionally, the first confirmed linear dichroism (LD) spectrum of a bacterium and flagella are reported, opening up the potential for real time UV spectroscopic analysis of living bacteria. By using the work contained within this thesis, it should be possible to construct a new form of high path-length accuracy, low volume, multiple-sample UV polarised spectroscopy accessory that could be used for both CD and LD analysis.

Abstract:

Vibrations in machines increase friction on moving parts which cause chafing that will tear down the fabric of the machine components when given time, thus monitoring and analysis of machine vibrations are important for preventive maintenance. Vibration analysis utilizes time domain as well as frequency domain analysis for which there have been analog solutions for quite some time. This work has been about moving a predominantly analog mixed signal system onto an FPGA and making it mostly digital. Vibration analysis on an FPGA have its own challenges and benefits compared to other methods. The inherent parallelism of the FPGA makes it suitable for high performance signal analysis. This report shows through two proof-of-concept solutions that the translation of a predominantly analog system is viable, economic and can deliver improved performance. The two solutions have utilized two different units from Xilinx, the Spartan-6 FPGA and the Zynq-7000 system on chip FPGA. The solution implemented on Spartan-6 produces a result in 9.32 ms and the other implementation based on Zynq-7000 produces a result in 9.39 ms, which is more than a 10-fold increase in performance of the current system. The results obtained show that both solutions can perform the calculations for the proof of concept within 20% of the allotted time. Costs of both solutions as well as other qualities of each solution are presented in this paper.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This study investigated Internet search tools / engines to identify desirable features that can be used as a benchmark or standard to evaluate web search engines. In the past, the Internet was thought of as a big spider's web, ultimately connecting all the bits of information. It has now become clear that this is not the case, and that the bow tie analogy is more accurate. This analogy suggests that there is a central core of well-connected pages, with links IN and OUT to other pages, tendrils and orphan pages. This emphasizes the importance of selecting a search tool that is well connected and linked to the central core. Searchers must take into account that not all search tools search the Invisible Web and this will reflect on the search tool selected. Not all information found on the Web and Internet is reliable, current and accurate, and Web information must be evaluated in terms of authority, currency, bias, purpose of the Web site, etc. Different kinds of search tools are available on the Internet, such as search engines, directories, library gateways, portals, intelligent agents, etc. These search tools were studied and explored. A new categorization for online search tools consisting of Intelligent Agents, Search Engines, Directories and Portals / Hubs is suggested. This categorization distinguishes the major differences between the 21 kinds of search tools studied. Search tools / engines consist of spiders, crawlers, robots, indexes and search tool software. These search tools can be further distinguished by their scope, internal or external searches and whether they search Web pages or Web sites. Most search tools operate within a relationship with other search tools, and they often share results, spiders and databases. This relationship is very dynamic. The major international search engines have identifiable search features. The features of Google, Yahoo, Lycos and Excite were studied in detail. Search engines search for information in different ways, and present their results differently. These characteristics are critical to the Recall/Precision ratio. A well-planned search strategy will improve the Precision/Recall ratio and consider the web-user capabilities and needs. Internet search tools/engines is not a panacea for all information needs, and have pros and cons. The Internet search tool evaluation instrument was developed based on desirable features of the major search tools, and is considered a benchmark or standard for Internet search tools. This instrument, applied to three South African search tools, provided insight into the capabilities of the local search tools compared to the benchmark suggested in this study. The study concludes that the local search engines compare favorably with the major ones, but not enough so to use them exclusively. Further research into this aspect is needed. Intelligent agents are likely to become more popular, but the only certainty in the future of Internet search tools is change, change, and change.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie studie het Internetsoekinstrumente/-enjins ondersoek met die doel om gewenste eienskappe te identifiseer wat as 'n standaard kan dien om soekenjins te evalueer. In die verlede is die Internet gesien as 'n groot spinnerak, wat uiteindelik al die inligtingsdeeltjies verbind. Dit het egter nou duidelik geword dat dit glad nie die geval is nie, en dat die strikdas analogie meer akkuraat is. Hierdie analogie stel voor dat daar 'n sentrale kern van goed gekonnekteerde bladsye is, met skakels IN en UIT na ander bladsye, tentakels en weesbladsye. Dit beklemtoon die belangrikheid om die regte soekinstrument te kies, naamlik een wat goed gekonnekteer is, en geskakel is met die sentrale kern van dokumente. Soekers moet in gedagte hou dat nie alle soekenjins in die Onsigbare Web soek nie, en dit behoort weerspieël te word in die keuse van die soekinstrument. Nie alle inligting wat op die Web en Internet gevind word is betroubaar, op datum en akkuraat nie, en Web-inligting moet geëvalueer word in terme van outoriteit, tydigheid, vooroordeel, doel van die Webruimte, ens. Verskillende soorte soekinstrumente is op die Internet beskikbaar, soos soekenjins, gidse, biblioteekpoorte, portale, intelligente agente, ens. Hierdie soekinstrumente is bestudeer en verken. 'n Nuwe kategorisering vir aanlyn soekinstrumente bestaande uit Intelligente Agente, Soekinstrumente, Gidse en Portale/Middelpunte word voorgestel. Hierdie kategorisering onderskei die hoofverskille tussen die 21 soorte soekinstrumente wat bestudeer is. Soekinstrumente/-enjins bestaan uit spinnekoppe, kruipers, robotte, indekse en soekinstrument sagteware. Hierdie soekinstrumente kan verder onderskei word deur hulle omvang, interne of eksterne soektogte en of hulle op Webbladsye of Webruimtes soek. Die meeste soekinstrumente werk in verhouding met ander soekinstrumente, en hulle deel dikwels resultate, spinnekoppe en databasisse. Hierdie verhouding is baie dinamies. Die hoof internasionale soekenjins het soekeienskappe wat identifiseerbaar is. Die eienskappe van Google, Yahoo en Excite is in besonderhede bestudeer. Soekenjins soek op verskillende maniere na inligting, en lê hulle resultate verskillend voor. Hierdie karaktereienskappe is krities vir die Herwinning/Presisie verhouding. 'n Goedbeplande soekstrategie sal die Herwinning/Presisie verhouding verbeter. Internet soekinstrumente/-enjins is nie die wondermiddel vir alle inligtingsbehoeftes nie, en het voor- en nadele. Die Internet soekinstrument evalueringsmeganisme se ontwikkeling is gebaseer op gewenste eienskappe van die hoof soekinstrumente, en word beskou as 'n standaard vir Internet soekinstrumente. Hierdie instrument, toegepas op drie Suid-Afrikaanse soekenjins, het insae verskaf in die doeltreffendheid van die plaaslike soekinstrumente soos vergelyk met die standaard wat in hierdie studie voorgestel word. In die studie word tot die slotsom gekom dat die plaaslike soekenjins gunstig vergelyk met die hoof soekenjins, maar nie genoegsaam sodat hulle eksklusief gebruik kan word nie. Verdere navorsing oor hierdie aspek is nodig. Intelligente Agente sal waarskynlik meer gewild word, maar die enigste sekerheid vir die toekoms van Internet soekinstrumente is verandering, verandering en nogmaals verandering.

Abstract:

The proposal of this thesis project is an exploration of the relationship between music and the built space. The space chosen for design is the first two floors of the Lady Byrd Hat factory located at 140 Virginia St. in the Shockoe Slip area of Richmond, VA. This project proposes the design of the building for the purposes of a music center that will benefit the community by providing music therapy, music and vocal classes, a performance space, and a café. It is to be used as an instrument for communication, health, and education. The main users of the space are music educators, music therapists, music ensembles, students, patients, and audience members of performances. I began by studying the history of the building, evaluating the site, and studying the architecture of the building. I conducted a series of conditional studies based on the architecture of the building to analyze the form. I evaluated the structure, symmetry/ balance, geometry, entrances, levels, stairs, ramps, angles, and circulation of the building. Then I studied the building according to light/ dark, public/ private, loud/ quiet, warm/ cool, large space/ small space. Creating a series of concept models helped me to understand the building with its strong dissection of columns, circulation, usable areas, rhythm, and repetition. The development of a program for users' needs, square footage, and special design considerations for each area led to a series of floor plans. I then began arranging the usable areas within the building according to each areas design needs. After a study of musical instruments, I began conceptual drawings of the space. The design of the space evokes imagery of the built forms of instruments and the details they hold.

Abstract:

Abstract In previous work, a proof-of-concept articulated instrument for minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery (MILS) was proposed to overcome limitations of existing instruments. In this paper, experimental validation is pursued to satisfy constraints on biocompatibility, cost, stiffness, and durability. It was found that the instrument exhibits minimal bending deflection of approximately 3mm under the maximum load experienced during MILS, has favorable workspace volume of 679cm3, and has adequate joint durability of over 700 bending cycles. Overall, this paper demonstrates that the instrument is able to meet many of the criteria required of minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery devices and addresses many of the shortcomings of traditionally used instruments.

Abstract:

This paper outlines the development and initial optimization of a compliant endoscopic suturing instrument. The developing field of Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery requires innovative instruments to meet the size limitations inherent in this type of minimally invasive surgery; using compliant mechanisms is proposed as one method of meeting this requirement. Three initial compliant designs were created, modeled, and compared for a distal opening of 10 mm. Restricting these designs so that they must fit within a 3.3 mm working channel is currently unique in endoscopic suturing instruments. A design that utilizes contact for stress relief and intertwining parts for added deflection was selected from the three. ANSYS® was used to aid in graphical optimization to maximize the jaw opening and maximize the puncture force of the selected design. The best geometry has a distal opening of 13.8 mm at the tips and can supply a puncturing force of 6.33 N. A prototype has been machined using the optimized dimensions and is ready to be tested. This initial study in compliant suturing instrument designs has revealed response patterns for the chosen geometries that will lead to further refinements and improvements in future models.

Abstract:

This paper presents the results of teaching robust design techniques to industrial design students in the Chinese context. Year 3 students in a Bachelor of Engineering programme at Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University in Suzhou, China studied robust design techniques over a one-semester course. As part of the course, the students worked in two groups to apply robust design techniques to traditional Chinese musical instruments: the jinghu and the erhu. The two groups took divergent approaches to the project. One group sought to follow traditional manufacturing processes (craftmaking) for the instruments, and the other applied typical simple prototyping techniques used within industrial design. Through selection of control factors, creation of orthogonal arrays, prototyping, and experimentation, the students were able to characterize the main effects of four control factors on the sound quality of the instruments, loudness or harmonics, and to explore the feasibility of robust design for instrument design.

Abstract:

This paper presents a new instrument for measuring roundness profiles of axially symmetric micro shafts with diameters below 250 micrometers. The instrument will measure form error in cutting tools used for micro machining, small-hole metrology probes, and other high aspect ratio micro structures. This instrument operates on the same physical principle as scanning tunneling microscopes, which measure surface topography using fluctuations in tunneling of electrons between probe and sample. The instrument will measure roundness profiles using a fixed-sensitive-direction arrangement of the detector, similar to macro scale metrology instruments. Challenges resulting from dimensional scaling necessitate an entirely new instrument compared to conventional instruments. We describe the need for this instrument, its working principle, architecture, the design of the traction drive mechanism, and the design of the nano positioning stages.

Abstract:

Abstract Robots are being widely used for minimally invasive surgery in various specialties. However, for minimally invasive spine surgery, the application of the robots has been limited to guidance of instrument placement. In this paper, as a part of the development of a tele-operated surgical robot for biportal endoscopic spine surgery, we present the development of robotized instruments for tissue removal. Surgical punch, pituitary and shaver, the instruments most widely used for bone and tendon removal in spine surgery, is modified for the surgical robot. Spine bone-breaking experiments have been conducted for the identification of design parameters and the resulting designs have been reported. Additionally, a prototype has been manufactured for each instrument.

Abstract:

Manipulation of large internal organs, e.g., spleen, kidney, and liver, is a demanding but challenging task during laparoscopic surgery using conventional miniature instruments. Recently fingered hand instruments have been proposed for doing this task which are assembled/disassemble inside the patient’s abdomen [1–3]. They are not, however, feasible for use in real surgeries considering the substantial time needed for their setting up process. This paper describes the conceptual design of an effective laparoscopic instrument for manipulation of large human organs. A novel mechanism is presented which enables the instrument to pass through a 10 mm trocar to enter the abdominal cavity when it is closed, and grasp body organs, as large as 80 mm diameter, when it is opened. It is shown that the instrument can be used effectively for laparoscopic surgery operations without the need to an assembling/disassembling procedure.

Abstract:

Due to its complex shape and its tightness, it is difficult to prepare the subtalar joint for fusion by means of a minimally invasive approach and conventional straight instruments. The preparation implies the establishment of bleeding contact surfaces. It is desirable to preserve the joint’s shape to keep congruent and smooth contact surfaces for optimal fusion. A compliant instrument was designed to facilitate the preparation by starting the design process from a clinically driven approach. The concept consists of a drill/mill unit at the tip that is steered through the joint by means of a passive automatic control. Since the joint will be fused, the cartilage and the subchondral bone layers should intentionally be damaged. This allows the use of the subtalar joint surfaces themselves as a guiding tunnel to preserve the joint’s shape. Thereto, a guidance frame was placed at the tip. The instrument is equipped with a special shaft that is compliant in one direction (perpendicular to the joint surfaces), and stiff in the two other directions to resist and transmit machining forces. The dimensioning of the instrument was performed by taking into account the specific shape of the subtalar joint. A prototype of the instrument was manufactured. The prototype is powered by a commonly used shaver system. The compliant instrument was tested in cadaver material, and gives promising results. In practice, the difference of the stiffness in y- and z-direction is at least a factor 100.

Abstract:

Abstract Failure of equipment not only leads to loss of production, but also, in some serious situations, causes human casualty. Hence, the need of equipment condition monitoring becomes crucial for reliable operations. Since expensive hardware instruments are needed for condition monitoring, with the current powerful PCs, software based virtual instruments are possible to replace hardware instruments. However, the software must be maintained for each PC, and a technician must still visit the site of the PC and its monitored equipment. By connecting the PC to the Internet, remote sensing and equipment fault diagnosing are possible. As only one copy of software for each type of virtual instrument is required on the server, the maintenance of virtual instrument is much easier and substantial cost of hardware instruments is reduced. Moreover, remote collaborative maintenance becomes feasible as worldwide experts can provide just-in-time advice to technicians via the Web. With the new standards of IEEE 1451.2 for smart transducers, the new sensors are self-Web-ready. Sensor manufacturers, such as Hewlett Packard and Bruel & Kjaer, have proclaimed their next generation sensors are self-Web-ready. Therefore, the development of a Web-based maintenance is a must in the near future. This paper presents the design and development of a solution and a platform for the Web-based remote collaborative diagnosis and maintenance. It consists of remote data sensing and logging, signal analysis using virtual instruments, and intelligent fault diagnosis and prognosis.
