THE MECHANISM OF THE PROSTHESIS FOR UPPER HUMAN LIMB – MAIN ASPECTS REGARDING: SINTHESIS, ANALYSIS, DESIGN AND FUNCTIONAL SIMULATION
Journal Title: ROMANIAN JOURNAL OF TECHNICAL SCIENCES - APPLIED MECHANICS - Year 2009, Vol 54, Issue 3
Abstract
This paper describes the main stages of structural and cinematic synthesis and analysis, design and functional simulation regarding the mechanism of the human hand prosthesis. For the structural scheme, one uses three pivot joints only, and one movement for closing the palm. The technical project is complete. One command scheme is shown too. The functional simulation has been made to identify the best solutions to optimize the constructive solution and to use the prosthesis by human operator.

ON THE EIGENFREQUENCY OPTIMIZATION OF EULER-BERNOULLI BEAMS WITH NONLOCAL DAMPING PATCHES
The paper discusses the bending of Euler-Bernoulli beams with external nonlocal damping patches. Unlike ordinary local damping models, the nonlocal damping force is modeled as a weighted average of the velocity field ove...
