In this study, we developed a Virtual Muscle Reflex (VMR) system to control ankle torque and tuned it using data from human responses to anteroposterior mechanical perturbations at three walking speeds. The system consists of three Hill-Type muscles, simulated in real time, and uses feedback from ground reaction force and from stretch sensors on the virtual muscle fibers. Controller gains, muscle properties, and reflex/vestibular time delays were optimized using Covariance Matrix Adaptation (CMA) to minimize the difference between the VMR torque output and the torque measured from the experiment.

Electroencephalogram based brain computer interface studies have been widely applied to perceive solutions for real-world problems in the healthcare domain.

Although many classifiers are at the fingertip of machine learning technology, recent research has proven that ensemble learning is more efficacious than individual classifiers. Despite its efficiency, ensemble learning technology exhibits certain drawbacks like taking more time on selecting the optimal classifier subset. This research article utilizes the Harris Hawk Optimization algorithm to select the best classifier subset from the given set of classifiers. The objective of the research is to develop an efficient multi-classifier model for electroencephalogram signal classification. The proposed model utilizes the Boruta Feature Selection algorithm to select the prominent features for classification. Thus selected prominent features are fed into the multi-classifier subset which has been generated by the Harris Hawk Optimization algorithm. The results of the multi-classifier ensemble model are aggregated using Stacking, Bagging, Boosting, and Voting.

In cases where this approach does not seem achievable, bone tissue engineering can offer scaffolding as a substitute. Defective and fractured bone tissue is extracted and substituted with porous scaffold structures to aid in the process of tissue regeneration. 3D bioprinting has demonstrated enormous promise in recent years for producing scaffold structures with the necessary capabilities. In order to create composite biomaterial inks for 3D bioprinting, three different materials were combined such as silk fibroin, bone particles, and synthetic biopolymer poly (ε-caprolactone) (PCL). These biomaterials were used to fabricate the two composites scaffolds such as: silk fibroin + bovine bone (SFB) and silk fibroin + bovine bone + Polycaprolactone (SFBP). The biomechanical, structural, and biological elements of the manufactured composite scaffolds were characterized in order to determine their suitability as a possible biomaterial for the production of bone tissue. The in vitro bioactivity of the two composite scaffolds was assessed in the simulated body fluids, and the swelling and degradation characteristics of the two developed scaffolds were analyzed separately over time. The results showed that the mechanical durability of the composite scaffolds was enhanced by the bovine bone particles, up to a specific concentration in the silk fibroin matrix. Furthermore, the incorporation of bone particles improved the bioactive composite scaffolds' capacity to generate hydroxyapatite in vitro. The combined findings show that the two 3D printed bio-composites scaffolds have the required mechanical strength and may be applied to regeneration of bone tissue and restoration, since they resemble the characteristics of native bone.</p>","PeriodicalId":20666,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part H: Journal of Engineering in Medicine","volume":" ","pages":"774-792"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141752497","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
