The deaths included G.V. Loganathan, an esteemed professor of civil and environmental engineering (CEE) and eight CEE students.

  • Refine Technologies to Create Active Orthotic Devices
    Refine Technologies to Create Active Orthotic Devices TASK GROUP DESCRIPTION Background Current orthoses were developed ultimately to enhance function of people disabled by injury to the limb (traumatic transaction of muscle and peripheral nerve) or by disorders that interfere with the muscle-nervous system, such as muscular dystrophies, stroke, spinal cord injuries, and weakness from aging. With few exceptions, currently marketed orthotic devices are passive and designed to overcome the weakness and instability produced by the pathology as well as to maintain the limb in an optimum functional position. The most common example is the polypropylene ankle-foot orthosis (AFO) designed to keep the foot and ankle at 90º to optimize foot contact and prevent foot drop in swing phase. The thermoplastic AFO is often designed with an articulating element between the foot and shank segments, thus allowing the patient some ankle motion. More elaborate braces for persons with spinal cord paralysis generally include the theromoplastic AFO linked to metallic uprights on the inner and outer shank and thigh. The uprights can even extend to a waist belt or trunk support (e.g., knee-ankle-foot orthosis [KAFO] or hip-KAFO. Hinges interposed at the knee and the hip are typically actuated manually or by cable systems. Patient-based research shows that the functional advantage of using these orthoses are difficult to measure. This may underlie the observation that while many children wear orthoses, during the transition to adults the orthoses are abandoned. The bulky stiff plastics, while providing support for the joint Page 1 of 9 encompassed, interfere with body center of mass transition during walking.

  • In Memory of Professor Liviu Librescu
    In Memory of Professor Liviu Librescu Professor Liviu Librescu, 1930-2007 Renowned Researcher and Educator in Aeroelacticity, Thermal Stresses and Composites Professor Librescu from the Department of Engineering Science and Mechanics died in the Virginia Tech tragedy on April 16, 2007, as he lived, devoted to his students and to his profession. His last action was to sacrifice himself to save the students in his classroom. At the hearing of the shooting, he blocked the door with his body while telling his students to jump from the window. He was shot through the door and killed. All his students survived but one. Professor Librescu survived the Holocaust and earned his Ph.D. from the Academy of Sciences in Romania (1969) where he stayed as a faculty member. He then immigrated to Israel from Romania during the communist regime and spent his sabbatical in 1985 in the Engineering Science and Mechanics Department at Virginia Tech where he stayed since then, continuing his research in aeroelasticity, thermal stresses and composites. He was a wonderful educator and a prominent researcher with numerous journal and conferences papers (“More journal articles and conference papers than anyone else in the field” say his colleagues) and a book - Thin-Walled Composite Beams: Theory and Application, with O. Song, Springer, 2005 -. He also served on the Editorial Board of seven different journals, helped organize many international congresses and symposia, and had recently participated in a project administered by the NRC involving researchers from his native Romania. Professor Librescu’s death is a great loss to the mechanics community.

Dynamic stability differences in fall-prone and healthy adults Kevin P. Granataa,✠ and Thurmon E. Lockhartb,* a Musculoskeletal Biomechanics Laboratory, Department of Engineering Science and Mechanics, School of Biomedical Engineering and Science, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, Blacksburg, VA, USA b Locomotion Research Laboratory, Grado Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering, School of Biomedical Engineering and Science, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, Blacksburg, VA, USA Abstract Typical stability assessments characterize performance in standing balance despite the fact that most falls occur during dynamic activities such as walking. The objective of this study was to identify dynamic stability differences between fall-prone elderly individuals, healthy age-matched adults, and young adults. Three-dimensional video-motion analysis kinematic data were recorded for 35 contiguous steps while subjects walked on a treadmill at three speeds. From this data, we estimated the vector from the center-of-mass to the center of pressure at each foot-strike. Dynamic stability of walking was computed by methods of Poincare analyses of these vectors. Results revealed that the fall-prone group demonstrated poorer dynamic stability than the healthy elderly and young adult groups. Stability was not influenced by walking velocity, indicating that group differences in walking speed could not fully explain the differences in stability.
