Conference Object A Fiber-Oriented Muscle Model for Predicting the Soft Tissue Deformation During Muscle Contraction(Mary Ann Liebert, 2022) Tang, Lei; Mihçin, Şenay; Wang, Ling; Li, Dichen; Mihçin, Şenay; 03.10. Department of Mechanical Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyEffective designing of rehabilitation apparatus with high comfort and functionality depends upon the accurate characterization of the shape of the residual limb as well as its volume and shape fluctuations. The active behavior of skeletal muscles, which plays an important role in the interfacial biomechanics of human-machine interaction, is not considered in the current design processes of the rehabilitation apparatus. In this study, a three-dimensional finite element (FE) model of the human thigh was proposed to simulate the soft tissue deformation caused by muscle contraction.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 10Algorithmic Decision of Syllogisms(Springer Verlag, 2010) Kumova, Bora İsmail; Kumova, Bora İsmail; 03.04. Department of Computer Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyA syllogism, also known as a rule of inference, is a formal logical scheme used to draw a conclusion from a set of premises. In a categorical syllogisms, every premise and conclusion is given in form a of quantified relationship between two objects. The syllogistic system consists of systematically combined premises and conclusions to so called figures and moods. The syllogistic system is a theory for reasoning, developed by Aristotle, who is known as one of the most important contributors of the western thought and logic. Since Aristotle, philosophers and sociologists have successfully modelled human thought and reasoning with syllogistic structures. However, a major lack was that the mathematical properties of the whole syllogistic system could not be fully revealed by now. To be able to calculate any syllogistic property exactly, by using a single algorithm, could indeed facilitate modelling possibly any sort of consistent, inconsistent or approximate human reasoning. In this paper we present such an algorithm.
