본 논문에서는 휠체어 사용자의 이동권 확보를 위한 계단 승강 로봇 개발에 있어 ToF센서 및 IMU의 데이터를 기반으로 자율 계단 승강 기법을 제시하였다. 자율 계단 계단 승강 기법은 랜딩기어 동작 시점을 위치로 구분하고 상태 머신을 활용하여 제어하였다. 본 연구에서 제시한 이론의 검증을 위해 표준 기준의 모형 계단을 제작하여 실험하였다. 진입각 확보 실험을 통해 랜딩기어의 동작 길이 평균 오차는 2.19%, Pitching 기준 진입각 평균 오차는 2.78%로 부드러운 진입을 확인하였고, 자율 계단 승강 기법의 단계 구분 및 상태 전이를 검증하였다. 제안된 기법의 실적용 시 교통약자들의 이동제약을 줄일 수 있을 것이고, 이동권 보장을 통한 자립심의 고취가 기대된다.

본 연구는 화재시 연기발생 또는 정전이 발생한 경우 계단을 통해 안전하게 피난할 수 있도록 축광재료를 부착한 계단의 피난유도에 관하여 조사하였다. 실험조사는 설계 제작된 계단에 35명(1차 20명, 2차 15명)의 학생이 참여하여 계단의 시인성(visibility), 오르내림의 편리성과 안심감에 대하여 실험을 실시하였다. 실험 조사결과 축광재료를 사용한 계단코는 정전시에도 계단의 단 높이 확인이 가능하여 계단 오르내릴 때 편리하고 안심할 수 있기 때문에 어두운 곳에서 사람이 피난 행동할 때에 매우 효과적이었다. 따라서 계단코와 계단참에 축광재료를 설치하면 정전이 되더라도 평소와 다름없이 피난을 할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the GRF(ground reaction force) parameters according to the shoes's heel heights and ground landing distances during downward stairs on bus. Participants selected as subject were consisted of young and healthy women(n=9, mean age: $21.30{\pm}0.48$ yrs, mean height: $164.00{\pm}3.05cm$, mean body mass: $55.04{\pm}4.41kg$, mean BMI: $20.47{\pm}1.76kg/m^2$, mean foot length: $238.00{\pm}5.37mm$). They were divided into 2-types of shoe's heel heights(0 cm/bare foot, 9 cm) and also were divides into downward stairs with 3 types of landing distance(20 cm, 35 cm, 50 cm). A one force-plate was used to collect the GRF(AMTI, USA) data from the sampling rate of 1000 Hz. The GRF parameters analyzed were consisted of the medial-lateral GRF, anterior-posterior GRF, vertical GRF, loading rate, Center of Pressure(${\Delta}COPx$, ${\Delta}COPy$, COP area) and Dynamic Postural Stability Index(MLSI, APSI, VSI, DPSI) during downward stairs on bus. Medial-lateral GRF and vertical GRF didn't show significant differences statistically according to the shoe's heel heights and landing distance, but 9 cm shoes heel showed higher vertical GRF than that of 0 cm bare foot in landing distance of 50 cm. Also anterior-posterior GRF didn't show significant difference statistically according to the shoe's heel heights, but landing distance of 20 cm showed higher than that of landing distances of 35 cm and 50 cm in anterior-posterior GRF. Loading rate didn't show significant difference statistically according to the landing distance, but 9 cm shoe's heel showed higher than that of 0 cm bare foot during downward stairs. The ${\Delta}COPy$ and COP area didn't show significant differences statistically according to the shoe's heel heights and landing distance, but 0 cm bare foot showed higher than that of 9 cm shoe's heel in ${\Delta}COPx$. Dynamic Postural Stability Index(MLSI, APSI, VSI, DPSI) didn't show significant differences statistically according to the landing distance, but 9 cm shoe's heel showed decreased value than that of 0 cm bare foot in dynamics balance. Considering the above, parameters of GRF showed different characteristics according to the shoe's heel heights and ground landing distances during downward stairs on bus.

본 논문에서는 곤충형 다리 구조를 갖는 4족 로봇의 효율적인 계단 보행을 위해 유전 알고리즘(Genetic Algorithm: GA)에 기반한 계단 보행 방법을 제안한다. 제안한 방법에서는 우선 계단 보행을 위한 요소와 도달 영역을 정의한다. 또한 GA 수행을 위한 유전자와 적합도 함수를 설정하고, GA를 이용하여 최소 이동 거리와 최적 에너지 안정도 여유(Energy Stability Margin: ESM)을 갖는 4족 로봇의 착지 지점을 탐색하여 걸음새 궤적을 생성한다. 마지막으로, 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통해 본 논문에서 제안한 계단 보행 방법의 효용성 및 우수성을 검증한다.

In this paper, a humanoid robot is simulated and implemented to walk up a staircase using the blending polynomial and genetic algorithm. Using recently developed kinematics for a biped robot, four schemes for walking up a staircase are newly proposed and simulated separately. For the two schemes of landing a swaying leg on the upper stair, the joint trajectories of seven motors are particularly optimized to generate an energy-minimal motion with the guarantee of walking stability. The proposed scheme of walking upstair is validated by an experiment with a small humanoid robot.

This study measured the downward stepping movement relative to weight change (no load, and 10%, 20%, 30% of body weight respectively of adult male (n=10) from standardized stair (rise of 0.3 m, tread of 0.29 m, width of 1 m). The 3-dimensional cinematography and ground reaction force were also utilized for analysis of leg stiffness: Peak vertical force, change in stance phase leg length, Torque of whole body, kinematic variables. The strategy heightened the leg stiffness and standardized vertical ground reaction force relative to the added weights (p<.01). Torque showed rather larger rotational force in case of no load, but less in 10% of body weight (p<.05). Similarly angle of hip joint showed most extended in no-load, but most flexed in 10% of body weight (p<.05). Inclined angle of body trunk showed largest range in posterior direction in no-load, but in vertical line nearly relative to added weights (p<.001). Thus the result of the study proved that downward stepping strategy altered from height of 30 cm, regardless of added weight, did not affect velocity and length of lower leg. But added weight contributed to more vertical impulse force and increase of rigidity of whole body than forward rotational torque under condition of altered stepping strategy. In future study, the experimental on effect of weight change and alteration of downward stepping strategy using ankle joint may provide helpful information for development of enhanced program of prevention and rehabilitation on motor performance and injury.

Objective: To control the rate at which body weight drops, forefoot initiates floor contact with the limb relatively extended at each joint. However, when the knee joints could not extend enough with going down the stairs, the forefoot cannot be contact initially. The purpose of this study was to investigate the differences between forefoot and whole foot in initial contract on soleus and tibialis anterior for health young adults when descending stairs. Design: A cross-sectional observational study design. Methods: Fifteen healthy young adults participated in this study. To compare between forefoot and whole foot in initial contact when going down the stairs, this study measured muscle activation on soleus and tibialis anterior. This study used the paired t-test to analyze the collected data and compare the supporting conditions. Results: After analyzing, the muscle activation of soleus was not statistically significant difference as 25.16% at forefoot initial contact and 24.37% at whole foot initial contact when descending stairs (p>0.05). However, the muscle activation of tibialis anterior muscle was significantly difference was 49.19% at forefoot contact and 71.55% at whole foot contact. Conclusions: The results of this study was that the muscle activation of the tibialis anterior was a higher at whole foot contact than that at fore foot contact when descending stairs. This study suggests that the landing strategy of the initial contact is a beneficial effect at the forefoot contact to maintain the postural balance and the muscle performance effectively when descending stairs in individuals with healthy young adults.
