Characteristics of Spatial Human Arm Motion and the Kinematic Trajectory Tracking of Similar Serial Chains Characteristics of Spatial Human Arm Motion and the Kinematic Trajectory Tracking of Similar Serial Chains Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Satyajit S. Ambike, M.S. Graduate Program in Mechanical Engineering The Ohio State University 2011 Dissertation Committee: Dr. James P. Schmiedeler, Advisor Dr. Gary L. Kinzel, Co-advisor Dr. Robert A. Siston Dr. Richard J. Jagacinski Abstract This work studies spatial reaching motion in healthy humans. Research suggests that for individual instances of movement, the central nervous system (CNS) composes an ex- plicit wrist path, which is transformed into joint motions in a time-invariant fashion. This is the time invariance hypothesis (TIH), and its validation for spatial motion is the first goal of this study. The human arm is typically modeled as a multi-link, serial chain. When one joint of a serial chain is actuated, it simultaneously causes movement at other joints be- cause of interaction effects. Based on horizontal-plane reaching studies, the leading joint hypothesis (LJH) proposes that the interaction effects at (mostly) the proximal joint in the multi-link serial-chain model of the arm are low. Therefore, the CNS ignores this interac- tion effect to simplify the computation of joint torques and control of the joint trajectory. The second objective of this dissertation is to validate the LJH for spatial motion. In a spatial reaching experiment, healthy subjects performed point-to-point reaching movements at three distinct speeds. Data analysis revealed time-invariant wrist paths only for some subjects in some reaching tasks, suggesting that the TIH is not a truly general or- ganizing principle for spatial reaching motion. Therefore, this hypothesis needs refinement and further investigation. On the other hand, the interaction effects at the shoulder joint were small for a majority of the movements in this experiment so, the LJH was success- fully extended to spatial motion. i The TIH identifies the inputs and outputs of the first stage in the process of compos- ing the muscle activations for a given motor task. A computational algorithm that can potentially be used to execute this transformation was developed next. The algorithm, called speed-ratio control, also has beneficial applications in commercial robot control. It is demonstrated that the application of this algorithm to robotic serial chains provides greater navigational accuracy in the vicinity of certain kinds of singularities. Speed ratio control applies to non-redundant serial chains. The simplest model of the human arm consists of three-degree-of-freedom spherical joints at the shoulder and the wrist and a revolute joint at the elbow. This yields seven degrees of freedom for the arm. For positioning and orienting the hand relative to the thorax, only six degrees of freedom are necessary. The human arm is, therefore, a redundant serial chain. The formal process of extending the algorithm to redundant serial chains is undertaken. Initial work in which three- and four-degree-of-freedom planar chains track point paths is presented. Speed ra- tio control allows the resolution of the redundancy in the mechanism by maximizing the output-space tracking accuracy. Examples show superior local tracking performance with this approach compared to path tracking using unweighted pseudoinverse solutions. ii To my parents, Manik and Sanjeev. iii Acknowledgments I thank my advisor, Dr. J.P.

  • Wrist Fracture – Advice Following Removal of Your Cast
    Wrist Fracture – advice following removal of your cast A plaster cast usually prevents a fracture from moving, but allows your fingers to move. The cast also reduces pain. What to expect It usually takes four to six weeks for new bone to form to heal your fracture. When the cast is removed most people find that their wrist is stiff, weak and uncomfortable to start with. It may also be prone to swelling and the skin dry or flaky, this is quite normal. It is normal to get some pain after your fracture. If you need painkillers you should take them as prescribed as this will allow you to do your exercises and use your wrist for light activities. You can ask a Pharmacist about over the counter painkillers. If your pain is severe, continuous or excessive you should contact your GP. The new bone gradually matures and becomes stronger over the next few months. It is likely to be tender and may hurt if you bang it. The muscles will be weak initially, but they should gradually build up as you start to use your hand and wrist. When can I start to use my hand and wrist? It is important to try and use your hand and wrist as normally as possible. Start with light activities like fastening buttons, washing your face, eating, turning the pages of books over etc. Build up as pain allows. Avoid lifting a kettle for 4 weeks If I have been given a Wrist splint You may have been given a wrist splint to wear.

  • The Geometry of Resonance Tongues: a Singularity Theory Approach
    INSTITUTE OF PHYSICS PUBLISHING NONLINEARITY Nonlinearity 16 (2003) 1511–1538 PII: S0951-7715(03)55769-3 The geometry of resonance tongues: a singularity theory approach Henk W Broer1, Martin Golubitsky2 and Gert Vegter3 1 Department of Mathematics, University of Groningen, PO Box 800, 9700 AV Groningen, The Netherlands 2 Department of Mathematics, University of Houston, Houston, TX 77204-3476, USA 3 Department of Computing Science, University of Groningen, PO Box 800, 9700 AV Groningen, The Netherlands Received 7 November 2002, in final form 20 May 2003 Published 6 June 2003 Online at stacks.iop.org/Non/16/1511 Recommended by A Chenciner Abstract Resonance tongues and their boundaries are studied for nondegenerate and (certain) degenerate Hopf bifurcations of maps using singularity theory methods of equivariant contact equivalence and universal unfoldings. We recover the standard theory of tongues (the nondegenerate case) in a straightforward way and we find certain surprises in the tongue boundary structure when degeneracies are present. For example, the tongue boundaries at degenerate singularities in weak resonance are much blunter than expected from the nondegenerate theory. Also at a semi-global level we find ‘pockets’ or ‘flames’ that can be understood in terms of the swallowtail catastrophe. Mathematics Subject Classification: 37G15, 37G40, 34C25 1. Introduction This paper focuses on resonance tongues obtained by Hopf bifurcation from a fixed point of a map. More precisely, Hopf bifurcations of maps occur at parameter values where the Jacobian of the map has a critical eigenvalue that is a root of unity e2πpi/q , where p and q are coprime integers with q 3 and |p| <q.Resonance tongues themselves are regions in parameter space near the point of Hopf bifurcation where periodic points of period q exist and tongue boundaries consist of critical points in parameter space where the q-periodic points disappear, typically in a saddle-node bifurcation.

  • Real Rank Two Geometry Arxiv:1609.09245V3 [Math.AG] 5
    Real Rank Two Geometry Anna Seigal and Bernd Sturmfels Abstract The real rank two locus of an algebraic variety is the closure of the union of all secant lines spanned by real points. We seek a semi-algebraic description of this set. Its algebraic boundary consists of the tangential variety and the edge variety. Our study of Segre and Veronese varieties yields a characterization of tensors of real rank two. 1 Introduction Low-rank approximation of tensors is a fundamental problem in applied mathematics [3, 6]. We here approach this problem from the perspective of real algebraic geometry. Our goal is to give an exact semi-algebraic description of the set of tensors of real rank two and to characterize its boundary. This complements the results on tensors of non-negative rank two presented in [1], and it offers a generalization to the setting of arbitrary varieties, following [2]. A familiar example is that of 2 × 2 × 2-tensors (xijk) with real entries. Such a tensor lies in the closure of the real rank two tensors if and only if the hyperdeterminant is non-negative: 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 x000x111 + x001x110 + x010x101 + x011x100 + 4x000x011x101x110 + 4x001x010x100x111 −2x000x001x110x111 − 2x000x010x101x111 − 2x000x011x100x111 (1) −2x001x010x101x110 − 2x001x011x100x110 − 2x010x011x100x101 ≥ 0: If this inequality does not hold then the tensor has rank two over C but rank three over R. To understand this example geometrically, consider the Segre variety X = Seg(P1 × P1 × P1), i.e. the set of rank one tensors, regarded as points in the projective space P7 = 2 2 2 7 arXiv:1609.09245v3 [math.AG] 5 Apr 2017 P(C ⊗ C ⊗ C ).

  • The Witten Equation, Mirror Symmetry, and Quantum Singularity Theory
    Annals of Mathematics 178 (2013), 1{106 http://dx.doi.org/10.4007/annals.2013.178.1.1 The Witten equation, mirror symmetry, and quantum singularity theory By Huijun Fan, Tyler Jarvis, and Yongbin Ruan Abstract For any nondegenerate, quasi-homogeneous hypersurface singularity, we describe a family of moduli spaces, a virtual cycle, and a corresponding cohomological field theory associated to the singularity. This theory is analogous to Gromov-Witten theory and generalizes the theory of r-spin curves, which corresponds to the simple singularity Ar−1. We also resolve two outstanding conjectures of Witten. The first con- jecture is that ADE-singularities are self-dual, and the second conjecture is that the total potential functions of ADE-singularities satisfy correspond- ing ADE-integrable hierarchies. Other cases of integrable hierarchies are also discussed. Contents 1. Introduction2 1.1. Organization of the paper9 1.2. Acknowledgments9 2. W -curves and their moduli 10 2.1.

  • Vanishing Cycles, Plane Curve Singularities, and Framed Mapping Class Groups
    VANISHING CYCLES, PLANE CURVE SINGULARITIES, AND FRAMED MAPPING CLASS GROUPS PABLO PORTILLA CUADRADO AND NICK SALTER Abstract. Let f be an isolated plane curve singularity with Milnor fiber of genus at least 5. For all such f, we give (a) an intrinsic description of the geometric monodromy group that does not invoke the notion of the versal deformation space, and (b) an easy criterion to decide if a given simple closed curve in the Milnor fiber is a vanishing cycle or not. With the lone exception of singularities of type An and Dn, we find that both are determined completely by a canonical framing of the Milnor fiber induced by the Hamiltonian vector field associated to f. As a corollary we answer a question of Sullivan concerning the injectivity of monodromy groups for all singularities having Milnor fiber of genus at least 7. 1. Introduction Let f : C2 ! C denote an isolated plane curve singularity and Σ(f) the Milnor fiber over some point. A basic principle in singularity theory is to study f by way of its versal deformation space ∼ µ Vf = C , the parameter space of all deformations of f up to topological equivalence (see Section 2.2). From this point of view, two of the most basic invariants of f are the set of vanishing cycles and the geometric monodromy group. A simple closed curve c ⊂ Σ(f) is a vanishing cycle if there is some deformation fe of f with fe−1(0) a nodal curve such that c is contracted to a point when transported to −1 fe (0).

  • Wrist Fracture
    Hand Conditions: WRIST FRACTURE A wrist fracture is a break in one or more of the bones in the wrist. The wrist is made up of the two bones in the forearm called the radius and the ulna. It also includes eight carpal bones. The carpal bones lie between the end of the forearm bones and the bases of the fi ngers. The most commonly fractured carpal bone is called the scaphoid or navicular bone. This fact sheet will focus on fractures of the carpal bones of the wrist. Causes A wrist fracture is caused by trauma to the bones in the wrist. Trauma may be caused by: • Falling on an outstretched arm • Direct blow to the wrist • Severe twist of the wrist Risk Factors Factors that increase your chance of developing a wrist fracture include: • Participating in contact sports, such as football or soccer • Participating in activities such as in-line skating, skateboarding, or bike riding • Participating in any activity which could cause you to fall on your outstretched hand • Violence or high-velocity trauma, such as an automobile accident Symptoms If you have any of these symptoms, do not assume they are due to a wrist fracture. Symptoms of a wrist fracture include. • Pain • Swelling and tenderness around the wrist • Bruising around the wrist • Limited range of wrist or thumb motion • Visible deformity in the wrist For more information visit us online at www.ptandme.com Hand Conditions: WRIST FRACTURE Diagnosis Your doctor will ask about your symptoms, physical activity, and how the injury occurred.

A cross-section of the set of unistochastic matrices of order three forms a deltoid. The set of possible traces of unitary matrices belonging to the group SU(3) forms a deltoid. The intersection of two deltoids parametrizes a family of Complex Hadamard matrices of order six. The set of all Simson lines of given triangle, form an envelope in the shape of a deltoid. This is known as the Steiner deltoid or Steiner's hypocycloid after Jakob Steiner who described the shape and symmetry of the curve in 1856. The envelope of the area bisectors of a triangle is a deltoid (in the broader sense defined above) with vertices at the midpoints of the medians. The sides of the deltoid are arcs of hyperbolas that are asymptotic to the triangle's sides. I. Introduction Various combinations of coefficients in the above equation give rise to various important families of curves as listed below. 1. Bicorn curve 2. Klein quartic 3. Bullet-nose curve 4. Lemniscate of Bernoulli 5. Cartesian oval 6. Lemniscate of Gerono 7. Cassini oval 8. Lüroth quartic 9. Deltoid curve 10. Spiric section 11. Hippopede 12. Toric section 13. Kampyle of Eudoxus 14.
