In order to achieve the realism required in simulating the physical behavior of tissues during deformation, the methods which allow the use of physical parameters are the most widely employed. This paper presents a method of simulating the deformation of three-dimensional objects that represent human organs through multiple layers of tissue, which utilizes the following physical parameters: modulus...
The validation of the mechanical behavior of medical devices (MD) that undergo reprocessing can be an important tool to ensure that the device is adequate for a new use. Health care institutions seek to increase their cost to benefit ratio regarding the purchase of a MD, without compromising the patient's health. Mechanical characterization is an excellent way to measure important physical properties...
In recent years the area of nonlinear control systems has been the subject of many studies. Computational developments have enabled more complex applications to provide solutions to nonlinear problems. The purpose of this paper is to use a combination of two techniques to control a nonlinear system: the Magnetic Levitation System. First, the exact linearization technique with state feedback is applied...
This paper presents an approach to anesthesia control using a model-based controller. General anesthesia with propofol is considered. The proposal tries to take advantage of the benefits of model-based controllers to improve the performance of control in anesthesia. The controller proposed is based on the application of two control actions. First, a nominal term is applied obtained from the inverse...
