In this paper, we propose a sliding mode controller for a robot manipulator with passive joints. A robot manipulator with passive joints which are not equipped with any actuators is a kind of underactuated system. Underactuated systems have some advantages compared to fully-actuated ones. For example, they weigh less and consume less energy because they have smaller number of components than fully-actuated ones. However the control of an underactuated manipulator is much more difficult than that of fully- actuated robot manipulator. In this paper a complex dynamic model of a manipulator with passive joints is manipulated for sliding mode control. Sliding mode controllers are designed for this complex system and the stability of the controllers is proved mathematically. Finally a simulation for this control system is executed for evaluating the effectiveness of the designed sliding mode controller.

The RMD(Rehabilitation Medicine Device) with CJM(Compound Joint Motion) is the lower limb unit muscular strengthening promotion rehabilitation medicine device for patients of joint orthopedic operation or the deficient elder of ability to walk, the handicapped. Since the products for the rehabilitation medicine device have limited to the simplicity linear motion, those do not give efficient the lower unit muscular strengthening effects. This device which was under the development gives to exercise of hip joint and knee joint with user's selection at once, get out of the simplicity linear motion. Also it will be contributed to a field of rehabilitation medicine and a mobility aid technology of the deficient elders of ability to walk, the handicapped.

Purpose : The objective of this study was conducted to find out the treatment of joint problems. Methods : This is a literature study with books, seminar note and international course books. Results : Passive oscillation and distraction movement therapy is only joint mobilization and pain control. In the joint therapy need muscle strengthening, training of eccentrical control and neurophysiological therapy for joint mobility, stability, stability of mobility and skill. Conclusion : Joint therapy is not only joint mobility but also strengthening of soft tissue. Need the neurophysiological therapy those are use of ventromedial motor nucleus and dorsolateral motor nucleus, reciprocal inhibition, eccentrical muscle contraction training, proprioceptors and exteroceptor for structures and functional activities. For the pain control, reduce swelling, keeping GAGs and functional activities need direct and indirect therapy.

The human knee joint is the intermediate joint of the lower limb that is the largest and most complex joint in the body. Understanding of joint-articulating surface motion is essential for the joint wear, stability, mobility, degeneration, determination of proper diagnosis and so on. However, many studies analyzed the passive motion of the lower limb because of the skin marker artefact and some studies described medial and lateral condyle of a femur as a simple sphere due to the complexity of geometry. Thus, in this paper, we constructed a three-dimensional geometric model of the human knee from the geometry of its anatomical structures using non-uniform B-spline surface fitting as a study for the kinematic analysis of more realistic human knee model. In addition, we developed and verified 6-DOF contact model of the human knee joint using $C^2$ continuous surface of the inferior region of a femur, considering the relative motion of shank to thigh during locomotion.

본 연구에서는 지면반발력에 저항하는 족부관절의 기구학적 특성과 운동학적 특성 사이의 관계를 고찰하는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 관절의 수동탄성모멘트와 각변위는 3대의 카메라와 지면반발력 측정기를 이용한 실험을 통하여 얻어졌다. 최소자승법을 이용하여 관절의 각변위와 모멘트의 상관 관계를 수학적으로 모델링 하였다. 관절의 운동 범위(range of motion)는 중족지절관절(metatarsophalangeal joint)을 제외하고는 5$^{\circ}$~7$^{\circ}$ 값을 보였다. 이 모델을 이용하여 지금까지 일반적인 모션 분석으로부터 측정할 수 없었던 족부관절의 기구학적 데이터를 얻을 수 있다. 더 나아가 이러한 수학적은 보행을 시뮬레이션 하는 생체 역학적 모델과 임상적 평가에도 적용 가능하다.

PURPOSE: This study compared the effect of the muscle energy technique (MET) and stretching technique on ankle dorsiflexion passive range of motion, balance, and gait ability of stroke patients with limited ankle dorsiflexion. METHODS: Forty-four post-stroke patients participated. The participants were randomized into the MET group (METG; n = 22) and the stretching group (STG; n = 22). The METG was subjected to the MET to relax the dorsiflexion, while the STG was subjected to the dorsiflexion stretching technique. Both groups completed standard neurological physical therapy for 30 min per session. The intervention was conducted five times a week over 3 weeks for a total of 15 times. All participants underwent ankle dorsiflexion passive range of motion measurement and Berg Balance Scale score determination and completed a 10-m walking test and the timed up and go test before and after the intervention. RESULTS: After the 3-week intervention, both groups showed significant improvement after the intervention (p < .05). METG participants showed greater improvements in ankle dorsiflexion passive range of motion and 10-m walking test results compared to STG participants (p < .05). CONCLUSION: Both interventions improved ankle dorsiflexion passive range of motion, balance, and gait ability in stroke patients with limited ankle dorsiflexion. Moreover, the MET was superior to ankle dorsiflexion passive range of motion on the 10-m walking test.

This study has done for the purpose of investigation among the degrees of pain coping strategies, pain, and depression of patients with rheumatoid arthritis. The subjects of this study were 214 patients diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. The data were collected from september 4 to 16, 1995 by questionnaires. The data were analysed by the use of frequency, t-test, Pearson Correlation Coefficients, ANOVA, and Duncan test. The results Were as follows ; 1. The mean score of pain was 213.5(range : 4-390) and that of depression was 21.4 (range : 1-50). The mean score of passive pain coping strategies was 30.2(range : 11-48) and that of active pain coping strategies was 18.6(range : 7-33) 2. The passive pain coping degree showed a positive correlation with the pain degree (r=.475, p=.0001) and the active pain coping degree showed a inversive correlation with that(r= -.296, p=.0001). The passive pain coping degree showed a positive correlation with the depression degree (r=.425, p=.0001) and the active pain coping degree showed a inversive correlation with that(r=-.299, p=.0001). The pain degree showed a positive correlation with the depression degree(r=.374, p=.0001).

In this paper, four-bar linkage mechanism for the knee joint is developed which is used in prosthetics. But unlike the prosthetics, the feature of this mechanism is that the instantaneous center of rotation of the four-bar linkages can be moved behind the ground reaction force vector so that it can be passively supported without any external power. In addition, this mechanism is developed similar to the structure of the human knee joint for eliminating the sense of heterogeneity of the wearer. In order to design the mechanism with these two objectives, optimization design process is done using the PIAnO tool and detailed design is carried out through optimized variable values. The developed mechanism is attached to the robot which can assist the hip and ankle joints. In order to verify the operation of the developed knee mechanism, an insole type sensor was attached to the shoes to compare data values before and after wearing the robot. Result data showed that wearer wearing the exoskeleton robot with the knee mechanism was the same value regardless of whether the heavy tool is loaded or not.

NREX, an upper limb exoskeleton robot, was developed at the National Rehabilitation Center to assist in the upper limb movements of subjects with weak muscular strength and control ability of the upper limbs, such as those with hemiplegia. For the free movement of the shoulder of the existing NREX, three passive joints were added, which improved its wearability. For the flexion/extension movement and internal/external rotation movement of the shoulder of the robot, the ball lock pin is used to fix or rotate the passive joint. The force and torque between a human and a robot were measured and analyzed in a reaching movement for four targets using a six-axis force/torque sensor for 20 able-bodied subjects. The addition of two passive joints to allow the user to rotate the shoulder can confirm that the average force of the upper limb must be 31.6% less and the torque must be 48.9% less to perform the movement related to the axis of rotation.
