The Taguchi Method and Conditions for its Implementation in High Performance Athletic Training
Abstract The purpose of this research is to present the main features of the Taguchi method, a method used today mainly in the optimization of industrial processes and products. It allows identification of process parameters that may contribute to system optimization; in our case, it allows the selection of the most effective means of training aimed at optimizing processes. After having determined the relevant characteristics in athlete training, we developed a model based on the Taguchi method, adapting the characteristics of that training for implementation in high performance athletic training. We also checked the optimum conditions for the implementation of management techniques and for…
Ankle Foot Orthoses with Wire Insertion
The objective of the work is to present some researches regarding the virtual modelling of external medical devices with wire insertion. Ankle foot orthoses are used to correct and prevent different disfunctions of the human body and also in athlets recovery. The research is motivate by the problems appeared using this medical devices: durability issues, patient confort, manufacturing costs, lightweight, flexible access to shoes, inexpensive, readily available. These issues depends of the wey design, manufacturing technology, materials used, patient behavior, skills manufacturer. Wire insertion in polypropylene is a new approach of orthoses materials.
