Design Factors

Competitive wheelchair sport performance is dependent on three factors: the athlete, the wheelchair, and the interaction between the athlete and the wheelchair (Goosey-Tolfrey, 2010, “Supporting the Paralympic Athlete: Focus on Wheeled Sports,” Disabil Rehabil., 32(26), pp. 2237–2243). In order to effectively refine the user interphase design of the wheelchair, it is essential to narrow down the key dimensions within the design space, which are likely to have an effect on the performance of an individual athlete. This paper provides a case study analysis of the test data obtained from five elite wheelchair rugby athletes, using a purpose-built adjustable wheelchair on a wheelchair ergometer. Four design factors (wheel diameter, camber angle, seat height, and camber bar depth) were tested at incremental dimensional levels to the athlete's current chair configuration; and tests were performed according to an L9 Taguchi orthogonal array. The case study analyzes acceleration, velocity, and time in the push phase of the propulsion cycle; as well as recovery time for each of the participating athletes performing a linear sprint task. The Taguchi method is applied to determining the positive/negative contribution of each of the four design factors to the outlined performance variables as well as their combined effect in a specific wheelchair configuration model. A performance ranking system and magnitude-based inferences on the true value of the effect statistic are used to define a high performance design space for individual athlete wheelchairs. Finally, the athlete's preferred ergonomics are considered to assess the narrowed high performance wheelchair options. As such, when adopting the approach presented in this paper, it becomes possible to customize an athlete's wheelchair design to meet the athlete's anthropometric needs as well as their performance requirements.

This paper presents an altered grey wolf optimization, the Taguchi method, and finite element analysis (FEA) with two-phase multi-objective optimization for the design of a six-phase copper squirrel cage rotor induction motor (SCSCRIM). The multi-objective optimization design with high-performance property aims to achieve lower starting current, lower losses, lower input power, higher efficiency, higher output torque, and higher power factor. The multi-objective optimization design with high-performance property using the altered grey wolf optimization, the Taguchi method, and FEA in the first-phase program is used for minimizing the starting current, stator iron loss, stator copper loss, and input power. The multi-objective optimization design with high-performance property using the altered grey wolf optimization, the Taguchi method, and FEA in the second-phase program is used for maximizing the efficiency, output torque, and power factor. Finally, the proposed skill with higher performances is evaluated and verified via a two-phase program design and some performance tests.

Electron Energy Loss

A double focusing magnetic spectrometer has been constructed for use with a field emission electron gun scanning microscope in order to study the electron energy loss mechanism in thin specimens. It is of the uniform field sector type with curved pole pieces. The shape of the pole pieces is determined by requiring that all particles be focused to a point at the image slit (point 1). The resultant shape gives perfect focusing in the median plane (Fig. 1) and first order focusing in the vertical plane (Fig. 2).
