Fig. 3 Kinect nodes and the human skeletal structure: ( a ) Kinect nodes, where black nodes are the nodes used in GRF prediction and OpenSim scaling, and gray nodes are not. ( b ) The human skeletal structure based on Kinect nodes, where points represent the “nodes” used to construct the graph str...

Fig. 4 The process of node correction. A plantar template was designed to ascertain the plantar feature nodes, including first MTP, fifth MTP, and calcaneus, using convolution. The FOOT ¯ and ANKLE ¯ were based on the identified characteristic points of pressure, and ... More about this image found in The process of node correction.

Fig. 5 Ground reaction forces prediction model, which combined a node processing module (GCN and LSTM) and an image processing module (3D CNN). Outputs were concatenated and fed into a fully connected layer to predict GRFs. More about this image found in Ground reaction forces prediction model, which combined a node processing m...

Fig. 6 Example of joint angles for a sit-to-stand progress derived from Vicon data (black solid lines), original Kinect data (gray dashed lines), and corrected Kinect data (gray solid lines). The corrected Kinect data demonstrate a marked improvement in the alignment of joint angle curves, closely...

Fig. 7 Example of the measured GRFs (black lines) and predicted GRFs (gray lines) for a sit-to-stand motion. The predicted GRFs across the three contact surfaces, namely, left and right foot and hip, closely mirror the reference curves both in shape and amplitude for the vertical and antero-poster...

Fig. 8 Example of the reference JRFs (black lines) and predicted JRFs (gray lines) for a sit-to-stand motion. Across all joints, the medio-lateral components of the JRFs are found to be minimal. The antero-posterior components of hips and knees exhibit pronounced fluctuations; the predicted JRFs a...

Fig. 9 Example of the reference JMs (black lines) and predicted JMs (gray lines) for a sit-to-stand motion. The predicted curves for the knee and ankle on both left and right sides closely follow the general tendencies of the reference curves, but there are differences in amplitude. Curves of the ...

Fig. 2 Representative photographs of strips after tear tests (donor: female, 60 years), illustrating crack propagation relative to the desired long axis of the strips. In each photograph, the intimal strip is positioned on the left, the adventitial strip on the right, and the medial strip in the c...

Fig. 3 Tear tension versus grip displacement plots for intimal (upper), medial (middle), and adventitial strips (lower panel) from the inner quadrant (donor: female, 60 years). Data from circumferentially and axially oriented strips at various axial sites are depicted: ascending thoracic aorta (fi...
