Wearable sensors modeling for healthcare

This work presents several modeling aspects regarding pervasive computing concept transferred to the wearable device for healthcare. Pervasive or ubiquitous computing consists in global trend for embedding small, low power microprocessors in everyday objects as wearable pieces - bracelets, clothing, for a fast information collecting and transmission. In the healthcare area wearable devices can collect important data and send them to the doctors or emergency stations. The wearable pervasive devices are based on the convergence of wireless technologies, advanced electronics and the internet. The first part of this work is focused on modeling 3D wearable device as knitted textile structure with embedded sensors, while its second part is dealing with the sensor model for electrical and mechanical simulations. The last part deals with a linkage system for support and sensors.
