Computational biology and physiology is an interdisciplinary endeavour, requiring input
from biologists, physiologists, mathematicians, chemists, engineers and clinicians. These …

In this paper, the dynamics of a non-ideally driven single-degree-of-freedom vibrating
system will be explored in detail. The objective is to describe Sommerfeld effect in a …

Biomechanical modeling of a finger is a challenging task especially due to excursion and
gliding of tendons along bone geometry, the presence of articular cartilage between mating …

This paper deals with the reconfiguration of an intelligent autonomous vehicle that utilizes
an automatic navigation method and online supervision system and thus can be used to …

The dynamics of contact between a rigid body rolling on a soft material is quite challenging
and interesting. It involves issues of dynamic change in the area of contact and force …

In the rich repertoire of biomechanical systems bond graph is a proper choice for the
modeling, analysis and simulation of biomechanical models. In this paper, we present the …

This article presents experimental test results for joints used in a biomimetic bipedal robot. In
this work, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) scans are …

We introduce a robotic prototype of an arm with a loosely coupled joint, modeled on the
human joint. A viscoelastic object functions as cartilage and soft actuators as muscles. First …

Articular cartilage is a soft tissue between the mating bones of a synovial joint. It prevents
direct contact while facilitating load carriage and lubrication with very low friction and wear …

The deformation effect of the soft material on the Robot's fingertips is a useful feature in
general robotics applications. Besides, the mechanics of contact with the soft material plays …
