... properties and fatigue properties when the patient walks after the operation. Design/methodology/approach It is mainly composed of a one-dimensional platform, a force sensor, a high measuring precision displacement sensor and a servo motor. Loading (which is used to simulate the loading status...

...Wenlong Liu; Yongxing Guo; Li Xiong; Yi Kuang Purpose The purpose of this paper is to present the latest sensing structure designs and principles of information detection of fiber Bragg grating (FBG) displacement sensors. Research advance and the future work in this field have been described...

... valuable feature of this new system is its applicability during different minimally invasive procedures, because it is fabricated in the form of laparoscopic instrument and can obtain in vivo data related to soft tissue. Also, by using both force and displacement sensors, the problems...
