Composites in energy storing prosthetic feet
PublicationComposites reinforced with carbon and glass fibers have become the commonly used material in the production of energy storing prosthetic feet (ESPF/elastic feet prostheses). Their properties ensure a stable and light structure that allows for accumulation, storage and release of energy during walking, thus ensuring an increase in gait efficiency. Depending on the modification of the composite in terms of fiber selection, their...

The role of EMG module in hybrid interface of prosthetic arm
PublicationNearly 10% of all upper limb amputations concern the whole arm. It affects the mobility and reduces the productivity of such a person. These two factors can be restored by using prosthetics. However, the complexity of human arm makes restoring its basic functions quite difficult. When the osseointegration and/or targeted muscle reinnervation (TMR) are not possible, different modalities can be used to control the prosthesis. In...

Selective Laser Melting of Ti Alloy for Manufacturing The Prosthetic Elements
PublicationThe selective laser melting (SLM) is the additive manufacturing method of custom-designed parts. The used materials and the applications are various, including medicine. The titanium and its alloys are materials for which the dimensional quality, surface smoothness and no or extremely low porosity are difficult to reach. In this paper, the successful attempt to obtain by SLM the individually designed prosthetic bridges is described....

Using deep learning to increase accuracy of gaze controlled prosthetic arm
PublicationThis paper presents how neural networks can be utilized to improve the accuracy of reach and grab functionality of hybrid prosthetic arm with eye tracing interface. The LSTM based Autoencoder was introduced to overcome the problem of lack of accuracy of the gaze tracking modality in this hybrid interface. The gaze based interaction strongly depends on the eye tracking hardware. In this paper it was presented how the overall the...

Double-ridged horn antenna with sinusoidal ridge profile
PublicationPrzedstawiono wyniki symulacji numerycznej oraz pomiarów parametrów anteny tubowej z podwójnym grzbietem. Badania numeryczne dotyczyły zarówno samego układu zasilania falowodu grzbietowego jak i całej anteny z uwzględnieniem sinusoidalnego profilu impedancji grzbietu. Wyniki obliczeń dopasowania oraz charakterystyk promieniowania, wykonanych przy użyciu symulatora QW-3D, porównano z wynikami pomiarów, stwierdzając dobrą zgodność...

Prosthetic Elements Made of the Ti-13Zr-13Nb Alloy by Selective Laser Melting
PublicationThe fabrication of the prosthetic foundations and bridges from the Ti-13Zr-13Nb alloy is described. The process was started from CAD/CAM design of 3D models of the foundations based on scanning of patient`s mouth. Next, 3D models were transformed into *.stl files for the manufacturing stage and then the manufacturing process by means of the selective laser melting with the SLM Realizer 100 equipment was made. The intrinsic structure...

Design aspects of a low-cost prosthetic arm for people with severe movement disabilities
PublicationIn this paper the main aspects of mechanical design behind the low-cost prosthetic arm are presented. The fundamentals of a proper design has been defined to obtain functional 3D printed 5 degree of freedom (DOF) prosthesis. The designed prosthetic arm is a part of the hybrid interface with eye tracking movement control. The main focus was to create affordable but usable prosthesis which corresponds in size and weights to the human...

Test loadings of arch bridges
PublicationIn Poland an appreciable developement of bridge building can be seen in recent years. Arch structures are more and more common, because of the original geometrical and aesthetical form, aside with explicit structural system. Paper concerns the applied computational conceptions and researches on an example of two arch bridges. The goal of the studies is to check the correctness of the real construction work and design assumptions,...
