  5. 8. The Robustness and Energy Evaluation of a Linear Quadratic Regulator for a Rehabilitation Hip Exoskeleton

    Author : Rabé Andersson; Niclas Björsell; Daniel Rönnow; Gianni Borghesan; Högskolan i Gävle; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hip Rehabilitation Exoskeleton; Robust Controller; Energy Consumption; Series Elastic Actuator SEA ; LQR Control; Luenberger State Observer; Torque Control; Höftexoskelett för rehabilitering; Robust reglering; Energiförbrukning; serieelastiskt manöverdon SEA ; LQR reglering; Luenberger State Obser-ver; Moment reglering;

    Abstract : The implications of gait disorder, muscle weakness, and spinal cord injuries for work and age-related mobility degradation have increased the need for rehabilitation exoskeletons. Specifically, the hip rehabilitation exoskeletons due to a high percentage of the mechanical power is generated by this join during the gait cycle. READ MORE

  6. 9. Utilization of local bioresources for transport fuels - System analysis for decision support

    Author : Muhammad Arfan; Ola Eriksson; Jonas Ammenberg; Högskolan i Gävle; []

  7. 10. Japanese Mathematics Teachers’ Professional Knowledge : International case studies based on praxeological analysis

    Author : Yukiko Asami-Johansson; Carl Winsløw; Iiris Attorps; Ricardo Karam; Marianna Bosch Casabò; Takeshi Miyakawa; Högskolan i Gävle; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Innovative Learning; Innovativt lärande;

    Abstract : The thesis describes and studies the Japanese mathematics teachers’ professional knowledge and its dissemination. This theme is investigated in several concrete situations: the knowledge of teaching practice of school mathematics taught in the teacher education, the relation between the educational goals described in the national curriculum and concrete teaching methods discussed among the Japanese lower secondary teachers in service.
