Design and Implementation of Fall Detection System Using Body Movement
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Vosoughi Vahdat, Bijan (Supervisor)
Abstract
Measurement is the start point of identification and analysis of a physical quantity. By recording body movements, one obtains an efficient insight of musculoskeletal performance. Furthermore it leads to quantification of physic-structural health of human. In addition this information can be applied to many human related applications such as: balance survey, sport analysis, muscular pathology, physiology method performance evaluation, etc.With reference to statistics of the elderly fall, the large number of medications with bilateral effects such as instability and drowsiness, arthritis resulted from daily movement misconduct, there is a need for a preemptive system to overcome these...
Probabilistic Optimization of Structures Equipped with Active Vibration Control Systems Under Probable Mainshock-Aftershock Sequences
, Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology ; Bakhshi, Ali (Supervisor) ; Ansari, Anoushiravan (Supervisor)
Abstract
Nowadays, the usage of probabilistic and reliability based frameworks is growing fast with respect to the development of computers. One of the most important issues which can be dealt in the field of structural/earthqauke engineering is the performance evaluation of the buildings equipped with active vibration control systems. In this research, in order to evaluate the performance of buildings probabilistically, the sampling simulation methods are applied. Accordingly, both structures and the loadings during their lifetime are considered as random variables. Therefore, at beginning, it is necessary to propose a model which is capable of producing structures with random properties. In this...
