Master Thesis Lower Body Dynamics for Rotational and Translational Activities: Cycling and Stair Climbing(01. Izmir Institute of Technology, 2023) Karacaoğlu, Bilal; Mihçin, ŞenayEvaluation of human movement performance in activities of daily living is an important component in clinical and rehabilitation settings. Motion capture technology is an effective method for objective evaluation of human motion. Here, movement kinematics and kinetic data are obtained from healthy individuals. In this thesis, it is detailed the daily life movements based on stair climbing and cycling. The aim of this study is to examine the effects of human movement on the kinetic and kinematic variables of the hip joint during stair climbing and descending. Data were collected using the Qualisys motion capture system, force plates, ladder and bicycle. By analyzing data from different individuals here, great potential information can be gained for predicting the recovery and progression of movement for patients. In the future, the development of personalized therapy protocols in rehabilitation with individualized progression can be offered. Optimum design parameters for the individual device and exercise device can be obtained, and if the relevant joints are supported with implants, it is possible to obtain the necessary boundary conditions for personalized implant design and to collect the necessary data for implant design. The Results and Discussion Chapter illustrates and tabulates the calculated results. In the Findings and Discussion section of the thesis, the calculated results of the study are included. This section provides a comprehensive analysis of the data collected, highlighting the observed patterns, trends, and variations in hip joint kinematics and kinetics during selected activities. The Discussion section delves into the significance of the findings by comparing the findings with the available literature, identifying similarities and differences, and offering possible explanations for observed variations.Master Thesis Investigation of Hip Joint Kinematics for Daily Life Activities(01. Izmir Institute of Technology, 2022) Tuna, Merve; Mihçin, ŞenayThe daily life activities of a population have a significant effect on hip joint due to the repetitiveness and difficulty levels. Therefore, daily life activity data is an important source for manufacturing successive and long-lasting implants for hip joint arthroplasty. In this study, the hip joint kinematics is investigated under six determined activity that is performed frequently by the Turkish population. The collected and processed data is used in a TUBITAK funded project to form a first national database for the Turkish people. The study first introduces the literature review on hip joint kinematics investigations for daily life activities. Thereafter, anatomy of the hip joint and motion capture techniques are explained. Experimental procedure, protocol, materials, methodology and data collection are explained in detail in the Methodology Chapter. This Chapter introduces the determined daily life activities, chosen motion capture system and post-processing tools for the inverse kinematic analysis. The Results and Discussion Chapter illustrates and tabulates the calculated results. Detailed explanations are made for discussing the results. The Conclusion Chapter summarizes the study.
