Development of a Balance Assessment Method in Dynamic Tasks (LOS) Using a Sway Control Model in Parkinson's Disease
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Behzadipour, Saeed (Supervisor) ; Mohebbi, Abolfazl (Co-Supervisor)
Abstract
Parkinson's disease impairs the patients' balance with the degeneration of the neurons related to their postural control. There are many rehabilitation methods to preclude the disease or weaken its effects. To assess the influence of these methods and their outcome, there are two main evaluation methods, including clinical (qualitative and dependent on the presence of a therapist) and quantitative, such as posturography. Using control models is one of the quantitative methods researchers have been used for more than three decades. Considering this and what have been done in the literature, the purpose of this research is to develop a balance assessment method in dynamic tasks, such as the...

Abstract
This paper targets at the calculation of in-service deformation of a flange in a billet continuous casting machine due to thermal loading. In this regard, first, the thermal analyses of the mould will be thoroughly and accurately conducted. Henceforth, the heat flux profile from the melt to the mould is derived from the literature and, based on the limited temperature measurements, it is calibrated for the understudy mould. Moreover, for the upper part of the meniscus, the effect of radiation is considered as a heat flux profile with an exponential function. Subsequently, the thermo-mechanical analysis is conducted by applying the thermal load, as a temperature distribution, on the...
