Outline • • Motivation and Goals Project Stages Important Skull Components Muscles System Analysis and Control Development Design Details Results and Conclusions
Motivation • Motivation – Over 10 million Americans are affected by TMJ disorders – 2 times as many woman as men suffer from TMJ disorders – Symptoms range from jaw click to limited movement, lock jaw, and pain • Purpose – Provide resource for analyzing the TMJ to allow for treatment of TMJ disorders – To test prosthetics
Overall Project Goals • • Create physical model of a skull Simulate jaw motions Lab. VIEW interface Virtual Matlab analysis
Stage Goals • Stage I – Initial Setup and Jaw Closing • Stage II – Jaw Opening (including opening to closing transition) • Stage III – Jaw Clenching and Disc Adaptation (disc must be capable of multiple forms of motion) • Stage IV – Lateral Jaw Motion/ Chewing (realistic disc simulation must be accomplished by this stage).
Background
Important Components of the Skull • • • Maxilla Mandible Muscles Ligaments Temporomandibular Joint Articular disc
Muscles of Closing and Max Forces Temporal 120 lbs Lateral pterygoid 34 lbs Masseter 93 lbs
Muscle Assumptions and Constraints • Muscles – Can only contract – Are symmetrical for either side of jaw – Act in a single plane – Will be simulated as acting as a single vector through the center of the muscle.
Muscle attachments • Koolstra Study 1992 – Attachment points: On Jaw – Anchor points: On Skull – Zero point based on contact point Muscle Masseter Lateral Pterygoid Temporal x (m) y (m) Attachment 0. 0204 -0. 0605 Anchor 0. 0338 0. 0043 Attachment 0. 0032 -0. 0044 Anchor 0. 0239 0. 0064 Attachment 0. 0363 -0. 018 Anchor 0. 0167 0. 0463
System Analysis and Control Development
Motion of the Human Jaw • What motions are involved in closing the jaw? • What assumptions must be made? • How can the motion be controlled?
Assumptions • Compressive Force on disc is constant • Disc moves with mandible • Mandible Contact Point o. Taken while in fully closed position o. Always perpendicular to articulating surface Results of Assumptions • The Disc will be Left out of Model • The Normal Force from the Articulating Surface Acts Directly on Contact Point
Physical Constraints of Mandible • Constrained to single path of travel • Mapped profile of the articulating surface • Orientation of lower jaw found at predefined target positions
System Control Anatomical Constraints Controllability Available Knowledge Control Knowledge Physiologically Realistic Value 5 4 3 2 1 Total Force 1 2 1 1 2 20 Position 2 1 25 Force Position Statically Indeterminate Anatomically Constrained Controllable with Tension or Slack Method Controllable with Length Adjustments Definitive Research not Available Information is Readily Available Control System Requires More Research Control System is Common and Simple Physiologically Accurate Not Physiologically Accurate
Positional Control Anchor Points • Motion Tracking • Constrained Orientations • Varying Muscle lengths Articulating Surface • Matlab Program • Variable surface profiles • Variable tracking locations Attachments and Predicted Paths • Creates positional output • Control Method • Control Muscle Lengths Mandible

Brushless Servo Motors • High precision and accuracy • Position control requires feedback • AKM 33 E- Danaher Motion • 2. 2 NM torque • Built in encoder
Controlling the Motors • NI PCI-7344 four axis servo/step motion controller • MDM-2100 integrated three axis servo drive with power supply
Lab. VIEW Interface • Can be run by any user • Allow easy future changes to project • Feedback loop built into program
Pulley System • Pulleys used to increase torque • Keeps motor cost low • Allows for project expansion
Wire Attachments and Guides • Can only pull like muscles • Adjustable tension
Skull and Lubrication • Mimics Program – Convert CT scan to 3 -D model • SLA model to rubber-molded model • Attachment points tested for bending • Lubrication on joint Lubricated Surface A Surface B Coefficient of Friction No Teflon Delrin 0. 45 No Teflon 0. 5 No Delrin 0. 45 Yes Teflon Delrin 0. 08 Yes Teflon 0. 06 Yes Delrin 0. 1
Results and Conclusion
Virtual Analysis
Physical Analysis
Results Virtual • Jaw Appeared to Open Improperly • Negative Force Values Physical • Separation at joint
Conclusions Initial Assumptions Were Incorrect – Mandible Does Not Stay Perpendicular to the Articulating Surface – Muscles Can Only Contract, Whereas Results Suggested Expansion • Muscle Choices May be Incorrect or Over Simplified
