Finite element modeling and injury criteria investigation for the lower leg of the Chinese human body under impact loads

The widely used human body injury criteria were established based on the biomechanical response of the EuroAmerican human body,without considering the differences in anthropometry and injury characteristics among different races,particularly the Chinese human body which typically has the smaller body size.The absence of such race specific design considerations negatively influences the injury prevention capability for these populations,and weakens the applicability of injury criteria.To resolve these issues,this study aims to develop a lower leg finite element model of a 50th percentile Chinese male.The model is built based on the medical images of an average size Chinese male with detailed ankle ligaments and lower leg muscles modeled.Data from sixty experiments available in the literature are used to validate its biofidelity.Using the validated model,the lower leg model is subjected to combined axial compression and bending loads to evaluate its injury criteria.Compared with a typical Euro-American human body mode,the Chinese lower leg presents reduced mechanical tolerance,and the revised tibia index may be an appropriate injury criteria for the Chinese lower leg.Additionally,the validated model reproduces the pedestrian lower leg fracture in a domestic accident.

Changing Characteristics of Comfort Index of Human Body in Bengbu City in the Past 40 Years under the Background of Climate Change

Based on the daily meteorological data of Bengbu City during 1981-2020,the changing characteristics of three elements needed for the calculation of the comfort index of human body(CIHB)were discussed,and daily CIHB was classified and discussed.The results show that from 1981 to 2020,annual average temperature tended to increase significantly.Annual average wind speed and relative humidity showed a decreasing trend before 2011 but an increasing trend after 2011.The duration of the four seasons in Bengbu City mainly rose in spring,reduced in winter,declined first and then increased in summer,and rose first and then decreased in autumn.As CIHB was at grades 1 and 9(the most uncomfortable),the three factors had different effects on them.For cold weather,the influence of relative humidity and wind speed on CIHB can not be ignored besides temperature.In hot weather,the influence of temperature was dominant,and the change of annual average temperature could well correspond to the change in the number of very hot days.In the context of climate warming,the number of cold days tended to decline generally,but it was larger in the years with fewer very cold days.Under the background of climate warming,there was no obvious change in the number of days of the overall comfort of human body.The number of hot days was closely related to the duration of summer,and the number of days of grade 8 rose significantly in the years with an increase in the duration of summer.

High-energy fiber-shaped calcium-ion batteries enable integrated wearable electronics for human body monitoring

Electronic textiles hold the merits of high conformability with the human body and natural surrounding,possessing large market demand and wide application foreground in smart wearable and portable devices.However,their further application is largely hindered by the shortage of flexible and stable power sources with multifunctional designability.Herein,a free-standing ZnHCF@CF electrode(ZnHCF grown on carbon nanotube fiber)with good mechanical deformability and high electrochemical performance for aqueous fiber-shaped calcium ion battery(FCIB)is reported.Benefiting from the unique Ca^(2+)/H^(+)co-insertion mechanism,the ZnHCF@CF cathode can exhibit great ion storage capability within a broadened voltage window.By pairing with a polyaniline(PANI)@CF anode,a ZnHCF@CF//PANI@CF FCIB is successfully fabricated,which exhibits a desirable volumetric energy density of 43.2mWh cm^(-3)and maintains superior electrochemical properties under different deformations.Moreover,the high-energy FCIB can be harmoniously integrated with a fiber-shaped strain sensor(FSS)to achieve real-time physiological monitoring on knees during long-running,exhibiting great promise for the practical application of electronic textiles.

The two-way feedback and passing-way of human body

Two-way feedback of human body was published in 1992. The sensation of two-way feedback of body is a special system of human reaction, which maintains and regulates symmetry and balance of human body. The human two-way feedback reacts to human health. For human overall health and delay decrepitude, it is necessary to pay attention to the stimulations (passive acceptance and initiative interventions) and relevant influences in human body and the stimulative effect. In this paper, the experimental research of stimulation and an example of two-way feedback in human body are given. And lay a foundation of prevention, medical treatment and hygiene of human overall health.

Quantum theory-based physical model of the human body in TCM

In the study,a quantum resonant cavity model based on wave-particle duality was proposed for the explanation of the dynamic processes of essence,vigor,and spirit in the human body in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM).It is assumed that there is a macro human order parameter(wave function),and its dynamics are governed by a macro potential field reflecting influences from heaven,earth,and society,and satisfy the generalized Schrodinger equation.This proposed model was applied in the study to interpret basic concepts of human body in TCM,with an aim to unfold the TCM development in the future.

Gray Model of Human Body Shape

In order to determine the control dimensions of human body in pattern construction and provide the basis for size specification in clothing industry, a gray model is described and established in the application of predicting size specification. By comparing the features of gray model and regression model, it is proved that the former has many advantages over the latter, i.e. more practical and more effective in this application. So it is strongly suggested to apply the innovative gray model instead of the traditional regression model to facilitate the calculation procedure in pattern construction.

Analysis of wave propagation on human body based on stratified media model

Human body communication(HBC) is a promising near-field communication(NFC) method emerging in recent years. But existing theoretical models of HBC are too simple to simulate the wave propagation on human body. In this work, in order to clarify the propagation mechanism of electromagnetic wave on human body, a surface waveguide HBC theoretical model based on stratified media cylinder is presented. A numerical model analyzed by finite element method(FEM) is used for comparing and validating the theoretical model. Finally, results of theoretical and numerical models from 80 MHz to 200 MHz agree fairly well, which means that theoretical model can characterize accurate propagation mechanism of HBC signal. Meanwhile, attenuation constants derived from two kinds of models are within the range from 1.64 to 3.37, so that HBC signal can propagate effectively on human body. The propagation mechanism derived from the theoretical model is useful to provide design information for the transmitter and the modeling of the propagation channel in HBC.

Low Power Single-Chip RF Transceiver for Human Body Cormunication

Human body communication is proposed as a promising body proximal comanunication tech- nology for body sensor networks. To achieve low power and slmll volume ill the sensor nodes, a Ra-dio Frequency （RF） application-specific integrated circuit transceiver tbr Human Body Commnunication （HBC） is presented and the characteristics of HBC are investigated. A high data rate On-Off Keying （OOK）/Frequency-Shift Keying （FSK） modulation protocol and an OOK/FSK delrodulator circuit are introduced in this paper, with a data-rate-to-carrier-frequency ratio up to 70%. A low noise amplifier is proposed to handle the dynamic range problem and improve the sensitivity of the receiver path. In addi-tion, a low power autonmatic-gain-control system is realized using a novel architecture, thereby render-ing the peak detector circuit and loop filter unneces-sary. Finally, the complete chip is fabricated. Simula-tion results suggest receiver sensitivity to be-75 dBm. The transceiver shows an overall power con-smxption of 32 mW when data rate is 5 Mbps, de-livering a P1dB output power of - 30 dBm.

Mass Stopping Power and Range of Protons in Biological Human Body Tissues (Ovary, Lung and Breast)

In this work, the mass stopping power and range of protons in biological human body tissues (ovary, lung and breast) were calculated at the energy ranging from 0.04 MeV to 200 MeV using the MATLAB Program. The data relating to the densities, average atomic number to mass number and excitation energy for the present tissues were collected from ICRU Report 46. The mass stopping power was calculated by the Bethe formula. Moreover, the simple integration (continuous slowing down approximation) method was employed for calculating protons range at the tissues. The results of the mass stopping power versus energy and the range versus energy were presented graphically and the empirical formulae for calculating the mass stopping power and the ranges were obtained. The present results for mass stopping powers and ranges were compared with the results obtained by others. Good agreements were found between them, especially at the energy ranging from 3 to 200 MeV.

The scientific hypothesis of an 'energy system' in the human body

This paper proposed the scientific hypothesis that human beings have an 'energy system' inside their body and put forward the necessity to propose the hypothesis.In details,this paper explained the hypothesis from its existence,composition,functions,and possible verifying methods.This paper argues that the human body includes both visible and invisible parts.The former is the material system and the latter is the energetic system.As matter and energy can be converted into each other,it is important to study the human body from the perspective of both the material and energetic systems,which can complement each other.The nature of the energetic system is different from that of the material system.The traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) perspective is based on energy;therefore,extending research on the human energy system may lead to the establishment of a modern TCM research field that is firmly grounded in the principles of TCM.Such a research field might generate novel findings.

Effect of Mechanical Vibrations on Human Body

Mechanical vibrations cause forces that affect human bodies. One of the most common positions for human bodies is the seated position. In this work, mathematical models of the seated human body are investigated and simulated in a Simulink/ MATLAB environment. In addition, segments of the human body are studied and models are developed and built by using Simulink/MATLAB. As part of this work, model analysis and state-space methods are used in order to check and validate the results obtained from the simulations. Two types of forces are used to test the whole seated human body under low frequency citation. The first is a sinusoidal wave signal based on literature, and the second is an impulse function. The effects of mechanical vibration on the head and lumbar are studied as these parts of the human body are usually the most effected areas. Kinematic states of the head segment and lumbar are considered. The characteristics of the vibration response on the two segments are also obtained. In addition to the me-chanical vibrations study, this paper is a resource for the development and implementation of models in the Simulink/MATLAB environment.

Rapid 3D human body modeling based on Kinect technology

The 3D shape of the human body is useful for applications in fitness, games and apparel. Accurate body scanners, howev- er, are expensive, limiting the availability of 3D body models. In this paper, we focus on the human body 3D modeling using one Kinect sensor modeling method. To get the human body model fast, three steps in rapid modeling of the human body are carried out. Firstly, according to anthropometric parameters, the standard model is parameterized; Secondly, the Kinect depth image of the human body model is gotten through, then, by using the PCL library the point cloud data is processed and matched, and the human body model is optimized; Finally, the realistic human body model is obtained with the rapid integration of the standard model and PCL library.

X-Ray Vision: The Mental Genealogy of the Anatomy of the Interior of the Human Body

Background: The concepts of the Young Person and of an Elderly Person go through an evolutionary diversification during the Human lifecycle and are permeable to diverse biopsychosocial factors involved in the definition of the lifecycle stages. Therefore, assessing this subjectivity in different stages of development and population fringes may be a determinant key factor to assist the implementation of successful disease prevention and health promotion strategies. Aim: The aim of the present study was to discern how Fine Arts’ college students of the Anatomy class mentally represent the inner morphology of the human body of the Young Person and of an Elderly Person. Method: For such, 126 students were asked to draw the interior of the body of a Young Person and of an Elderly Person. In all, 252 drawings were collected and analysed, based on a coding data grid designed for this purpose. Hence, a comparative analysis of these two different vital lifecycle phases was achieved. Results: The results suggest anatomical differences in the pictorial representation of the Young Person and of the Elderly Person, namely in the accentuation of the curvatures of the vertebral column, retrusion of the lower jaw and muscle flaccidity. Conclusions: Although the body schema was the same for all individuals, the body image was singularly depicted and linked to each individual’s history, representing a synthesis of his idiosyncratic perceptions, experiences and particularities.
