Computer simulation of the pulsating blood flow in arteries with stenosis, aneurysms and plaques
(Proceedings of 11th International Conference BIOMDLORE 2016, 2016)The stenosis, aneurysms and plaques are the most common types of the blood vessel pathology. To study their influence on the pulsating blood flow and the internal pressure the mechanical models of pulsating blood flow and ... -
BoB – biomechanics in MATLAB
(Proceedings of 11th International Conference BIOMDLORE 2016, 2016)Biomechanics is a maturing discipline with numeric analysis of kinematic and kinetic data becoming widespread within academic research institutions and commercial organisations. Many engineers and scientists engaged in ... -
Numerical modelling of the forklift tip-over to test effectiveness of the safety components
(Proceedings of 11th International Conference BIOMDLORE 2016, 2016)Forklift overturning with its operator is the most common and dangerous type of an accident involving internal transport. The forklifts are equipped with safety components to avoid, or reduce the effects of forklift tip-over. ... -
The supporting method for automatic diagnosis of prostatic hypertrophy
(Proceedings of 11th International Conference BIOMDLORE 2016, 2016)In the paper numerical algorithms used in the automatic diagnosis of prostatic hypertrophy are presented. The liquid flow during urination was applied as a signal that describes the condition of prostate. In order to ... -
The use of DTW method as an effective way of uroflowmetry data screening analysis
(Proceedings of 11th International Conference BIOMDLORE 2016, 2016)The aim of this work is to present an application of the Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) method for the preliminary classification of data obtained during uroflowmetric tests. This enables determining whether the recorded data ... -
3D microfabrication of complex structures for biomedical applications via combination of subtractive/additive direct laser writing and 3D printing
(Proceedings of 11th International Conference BIOMDLORE 2016, 2016)In this work we present current progress on employing direct laser writing (DLW) for creation of 3D microstructures for biomedical applications. Both subtractive and additive variations of DLW allow fabricating structures ... -
Biomechanical analysis of the cancellous screws implantation schemes in surgical treatment of flexible flatfoot in children
(Proceedings of 11th International Conference BIOMDLORE 2016, 2016)Carry out comparative biomechanical analysis of influence of the implantation scheme and characteristic sizes of cancellous screws on parameters of its strained condition, and elaborate guidelines for optimization of ... -
Myotonometry as a tool for determination of fatigue in the upper extremities of garment industry workers
(Proceedings of 11th International Conference BIOMDLORE 2016, 2016)The myotonometric measurements of upper limb muscles of garment workers working in a static posture are presented. The workers’ pain intensity was followed on the pain Visual Analogue Scale. The results show that M trapezius ... -
Estimation of temporal gait parameters of multiple sclerosis patients in clinical setting using inertial sensors
(Proceedings of 11th International Conference BIOMDLORE 2016, 2016)Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most frequent neurological disease causing permanent disability in young adults. Subtle walking difficulties, such as reduced walking speed, step length, cadence and increased step width can ... -
