The worldwide population aging and hence the higher risk of age‐related diseases facilitates interest in robotic devices for rehabilitation and movement assistance. A major factor of a persons functional independence is the ability to perform the movement task of standing up from a chair, also known as sit‐to‐stand (STS) movement. This work focuses on the development of a passive, wearable knee orthosis...
The planned tunnel alignment of the Brenner Base Tunnel crosses the aquifer of the Hochstegen marble between the Valsertal and Pfitschtal valleys. Due to the great importance of this aquifer for the water balance of the affected gullies, a 2D model was produced of the groundwater flow system. The intention of the 2D model was on one hand to gain information about the effects of the lowering of the...
A large number of applications use motion capture systems to track the location and the body posture of people. For instance, the movie industry captures actors to animate virtual characters that perform stunts. Today's tracking systems either operate with statically mounted cameras and thus can be used in confined areas only or rely on inertial sensors that allow for free and large-scale motion but...
