6 Dynamic Analysis
A general dynamical system subjected to an external force vector $\vec{f}(t)$... -
Fuzzy Equational Logic
Equational logic deals with identities (equations) like x+y ≈ y+x, x.(y+z) ≈ x.y + x.z, dec(inc(x)) ≈ x, etc. Identities are simple formulas which... -
Multimedia Medical Informatics System in Healthcare
In our modern 21st century, daily life would be unthinkable without computers. Multimedia and virtual reality are useful for people with spein... -
18 Design of an Intelligent Wheelchair for the Motor Disabled
As rehabilitation technologies such as robotics, artificial intelligence, and computer science have been rapidly developed, the dream of overcoming... -
24 A Wrist Extension for MIT-MANUS
In 1991, a novel robot named MIT-MANUS was introduced as a test bed to study the potential of using robots to assist in and quantify the... -
27 Great Expectations for Rehabilitation Mechatronics in the Coming Decade

17 A Concept for Control of Indoor-Operated Autonomous Wheelchair
The present chapter introduces a navigation algorithm for a wheelchair in semistructured home environment. The user sets the end position and... -
20 Human-Friendly Care Robot System for the Elderly
In this paper, “Do-u-mi”, a robotic care system is introduced (Do-u-mi means “helper” in Korean) (see Fig. 20.1). It is particularly aimed at the... -
19 Electrically Assisted Walker with Supporter-Embedded Force-Sensing Device
An electrically assisted walking aid with a force-sensing device embedded in its supporting arm has been developed. The force sensor consists of a... -
8 Selectable Operating Interfaces of the Meal-Assistance Device “My Spoon”
Eating is a basic need for humans. In fact, it is so basic that most people are not aware of the motions that they use while eating. For some... -
8 Karhunen-Loève Expansion
In the following, second order stochastic processes are considered, i.e. random functions x(t) satisfying E{x(t)2}<∞,... -
1 Objectives
Complex deterministic systems under deterministic loading are generally analyzed by the finite element method. This is mainly due to the most... -
B Lyapunov Matrix Differential Equation
The state space equation of the system defined in (6.18) is given by, see e.g. [91],... -
13 Random Vibrations of Multi-Story Structures
The procedure described in Sec.11 is now applied to both a multi degree of freedom system (12-story building, 36 degrees of freedom) and a large... -
Parameters optimization and precision enhancement of Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy neural network
Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy neural network (TSFNN) has been widely used in intelligent prediction. The prediction accuracy of TSFNN is impacted by its model...
