Musculoskeletal Problems in Wheelchair Users: A Review Study

Mobility is the basic need for functionality in human life. Physically disabled people often require mobility aids and wheelchairs are the most commonly preferred assistive mobility devices for enhancing independent functional mobility. Today, powered and manual wheelchair technology is available. Manual wheelchair propulsion necessitates more repetitive loading, but because the human body is not designed for such movement, musculoskeletal and functional issues such as pain and joint limitation may arise among manual wheelchair users. They require more support from their spine, arm, elbow, and ...Daha fazlası

Evaluation of the displacement behavior of wide beam frames using nonlinear static and dynamic analyses Doğrusal olmayan statik ve dinamik analizler kullanarak yassı kirişli çerçevelerinin yer değiştirme davranışının değerlendirilmesi

Şen, Ornela

ÖZETYassı kirişli çerçeveler, kiriş kesitlerinin sığ ve geniş olduğu bir betonarme çerçeve tipidir. Genel olarak, bu kirişlerin derinliği döşemelerin derinliği ile aynıdır ve tavanda görünmemektedir, böylece daha estetik bir görünüm sağlamaktadır. Ancak, kiriş kesitleri narin ve esnek olduğundan, yassı kirişlerle inşa edilen betonarme yapıların, orta ila yüksek sismik sarsıntılara karşı dayanıma sahip olmadığını düşünülmektedir. Bu tip çerçevelerin genellikle sünek davranışa sahip olmadığını kabul edilir. Bu tezde 30 çerçeve modelinin analitik bir incelemesi sunulmaktadır. Farklı geometrik kon ...Daha fazlası
