In these simulations, femur and tibia segments were also incorporated into the model to analyze the impacts of the exoskeleton on human movement dynamics in detail. The results reveal that material selection significantly influences joint reaction forces and moments, ground reaction forces, and contact forces. Flexible materials were found to provide greater comfort to the user but demonstrated lower durability performance. Conversely, more durable materials improved overall efficiency by reducing load transfer. These findings emphasize that material selection in exoskeleton design plays a critical role not only in durability and performance but also in meeting ergonomic requirements. This research offers a valuable foundation for developing exoskeleton designs tailored to different user groups and highlights the need to customize material selection to optimize biomechanical performance.

This process often involves multiple sequential and interconnected transformations, which must be well-documented to ensure transparency and reproducibility. In this paper, we propose the use of transformation trees as a method for structured recording and management of these transformations. This approach has been implemented in the dpVision software and uses a dedicated .dpw file format to store hierarchical relationships between images, transformations, and motion data. Transformation trees allow precise tracking of all image processing steps, reduce the need to store multiple copies of the same data, and enable the indirect registration of images that do not share common reference points. This improves the reproducibility of the analyses and facilitates later processing and integration of images from different sources. The practical application of this method is demonstrated with examples from orthodontics, including the integration of 3D face scans, intraoral scans, and CBCT images, as well as the documentation of mandibular motion. Beyond orthodontics, this method can be applied in other fields that require systematic management of image registration processes, such as maxillofacial surgery, oncology, and biomechanical analysis. Maintaining long-term data consistency is essential for both scientific research and clinical practice. It enables easier comparison of results in longitudinal studies, improves retrospective analysis, and supports the development of artificial intelligence algorithms by providing standardized and well-documented datasets. The proposed approach enhances data organization, allows for efficient analysis, and facilitates the reuse of information in future studies and diagnostic procedures.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":10578,"journal":{"name":"Computers in biology and medicine","volume":"193 ","pages":"Article 110311"},"PeriodicalIF":7.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144107112","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
