Muscle fatigue analysis during dynamic contractions based on biomechanical features and Permutation Entropy

  • Muscle fatigue is an important field of study in sports medicine and occupational health. Several studies in the literature have proposed methods for predicting muscle fatigue in isometric con-tractions using three states of muscular fatigue: Non-Fatigue, Transition-to-Fatigue, and Fatigue. For this, several features in time, spectral and time-frequency domains have been used, with good performance results; however, when they are applied to dynamic contractions the performance decreases. In this paper, we propose an approach for analyzing muscle fatigue during dynamic contractions based on time and spectral domain features, Permutation Entropy (PE) and biomechanical features. We established a protocol for fatiguing the deltoid muscle and acquiring surface electromiography (sEMG) and biomechanical signals. Subsequently, we segmented the sEMG and biomechanical signals of every contraction. In order to label the contraction, we computed some features from biomechanical signals and evaluated their correlation with fatigue progression, and the most correlated variables were used to label the contraction using hierarchical clustering with Wardos linkage. Finally, we analyzed the discriminant capacity of sEMG features using ANOVA and ROC analysis. Our results show that the biomechanical features obtained from angle and angular velocity are related to fatigue progression, the analysis of sEMG signals shows that PE could distinguish Non-Fatigue, Transition-to-Fatigue and Fatigue more effectively than classical sEMG features of muscle fatigue such as Median Frequency.

    First, consider a kind of variation-inequality problem

    {Lu0,(x,t)ΩT,uu0,(x,t)ΩT,Lu(uu0)=0,(x,t)ΩT,u(0,x)=u0(x),xΩ,u(t,x)=0,(x,t)Ω×(0,T), (1)

    with the non-Newtonian polytropic operator,

    Lu=tuum(|um|p2um)γ|um|p. (2)

    Here, ΩRN(N2) is a bounded domain with an appropriately smooth boundary Ω, p2, m>0 and u0 satisfies

    u0>0,um0W1,p(Ω)L(Ω).

    The theory of variation-inequality problems has gained significant attention due to its applications in option pricing. These applications are discussed in references [1,2,3], where more details on the financial background can be found. In recent years, there has been a growing interest in the study of variation-inequality problems, with a particular emphasis on investigating the existence and uniqueness of solutions.

    In 2022, Li and Bi considered a two dimension variation-inequality system [4],

    {min{Liuifi(x,t,u1,u2),uiui,0}=0,(x,t)ΩT,u(0,x)=u0(x),xΩ,u(t,x)=0,(x,t)Ω×(0,T),

    involving a degenerate parabolic operator

    Liui=tuidiv(|ui|pi2ui),i=1,2.

    Using the comparison principle of Liui and norm estimation techniques, the sequence of upper and lower solutions for the auxiliary problem is obtained. The existence and uniqueness of weak solutions are then analyzed. While reference [5] considers the initial boundary value problem under a single variational inequality, the author explores more complex non-divergence parabolic operators

    Lu=tuudiv(a(u)|u|p(x)2u)γ|u|p(x)f(x,t).

    Reference [5] constructs a more intricate auxiliary problem and proves that the weak solutions are both unique and existent by using progressive integration and various inequality amplification techniques. Readers can refer to references [6,7,8] for further information on these interesting results.

    In the field of differential equations, there are various literature available on initial boundary value problems that involve the non-Newtonian polytropic operator. In [9,10], the authors focused on a specific class of initial boundary value problems that feature the non-Newtonian polytropic operator

    {tu(|um|p2um)+h(x,t)uα=0,(x,t)ΩT,u(0,x)=u0(x),xΩ,u(t,x)=0,(x,t)Ω×(0,T).

    To investigate the existence of a weak solution, they made use of topologic degree theory.

    Currently, there is no literature on the study of variational inequalities under non-Newtonian polytropic operators (2). Therefore, we attempt to use the results of partial differential equations from literature [5,9,10] to investigate the existence and blow-up properties of weak solutions for variational inequalities (1). Additionally, considering the degeneracy of the operator Lu at u=0 and um=0, some traditional methods for existence proofs are no longer applicable. Here, we attempt to use the fixed point theorem to solve this issue, and obtain the existence and blow up of generalized solutions.

    We first consider the case of variation-inequality in corn options. During the harvest season, farmers face the problem of corn storage, while flour manufacturers are concerned about the downtime caused by a lack of raw materials.

    In exchange for the farmer storing the raw materials in the warehouse, the flour manufacturer promises the farmer the following contract:

    Farmers at any time within a year have the right to sell corn at the agreed price K.

    Assuming that the current time is 0, the corn price St follows the time interval [0, T], and is given by:

    dSt=μStdt+σStdWt,

    where S0 is known, μ represents the annual growth rate of corn price, and σ represents the volatility rate. {Wt,t0} stands for a winner process, representing market noise.

    In addition, to avoid significant economic losses for flour manufacturers due to rapid increases in raw material prices, obstacle clauses are often included in the following form: if the price of corn rises more than B, the option contract becomes null and void. According to literature [1,2,3], the value V of the option contract at any time t[0,T] satisfies

    {min{L0V,Vmax{SK,0}}=0,(S,t)(0,B)×(0,T),u(0,x)=max{SK,0},S(0,B),u(t,B)=0,t(0,T),u(t,0)=0,t(0,T), (3)

    where L0V=tV+12σ2S2SSV+rSSVrV, r is the risk-free interest rate of the agricultural product market; B is the upper bound of corn prices, which prevents flour manufacturers from incurring significant losses due to rising corn prices. On the one hand, if x=lnS, then (3) can be written as

    {min{L1V,Vmax{exK,0}}=0,(x,t)(,lnB)×(0,T),u(0,x)=max{exK,0},x(,lnB),u(t,lnB)=0,t(0,T),u(t,0)=0,t(0,T),

    where L1V=tV+12σ2xxV+rxVrV. It can be seen that problem (4) is a constant coefficient parabolic variational inequality problem, which has long been studied by scholars (see [1,2,3] for details). On the other hand, when there are transaction costs involved in agricultural product trading, the constant σ in the operator LV is no longer valid and is often related to SV, as well as V itself. For instance, the well-known Leland model [5] adjusts volatility σ into a non-divergence structure represented by

    σ2=σ20(1+Lesign(Vx(|xV|p2xV))),p2, (4)

    where σ denotes the original volatility and Le corresponds to the Leland number.

    Inspired by these findings, we aim to explore more intricate variation-inequality models in (1). When m=1, the non-divergence polytropic structure um(|um|p2um) in model (1) degenerates into a similar n-dimensional structure as model (4). It's worth noting that while model (4) only considers one type of risky asset and is defined in a 1-dimensional space, model (1) studies the problem in an n-dimensional space.

    Variation-inequality (1) degenerates when either u=0 or um=0. Classically, there would be no traditional solution. Following a similar way in [1,3], we consider generalized solutions and first give a class of maximal monotone maps G:[0,+)[0,+) satisfies

    G(x)=0ifx>0,G(x)>0ifx=0. (5)

    Definition 2.1 A pair (u,ξ) is called a generalized solution for variation-inequality, if for any fixed T>0,

    (a) umL(0,T,W1,p0(Ω)), tuL2(ΩT),

    (b) ξG(uu0)forany(x,t)ΩT,

    (c) u(x,t)u0(x),u(x,0)=u0(x)forany(x,t)ΩT,

    (d) for every test-function φC1(ˉΩT), there holds

    ΩTtuφ+um|um|p2umφdxdt+(1γ)ΩT|um|pφdxdt=ΩTξφdxdt.

    As far as what was mentioned above, um(|um|p2um) degenerates when um=0 or um=0. We set and use a parameter ε[0,1] to regularize um(|um|p2um) in operator Lu and the initial boundary condition. Meanwhile, we use ε to construct a penalty function βε() and use it to control the inequalities in (1) that the penalty map βε:R+R satisfies

    βε(x)=0ifx>ε,βε(x)[M0,0)ifx[0,ε]. (6)

    In other words, we consider the following regular problem

    {Lεuε=βε(uεu0),(x,t)QT,uε(x,0)=u0ε(x),xΩ,uε(x,t)=ε,(x,t)QT, (7)

    where

    Lεuε=tuεumε((|umε|2+ε)p2umε)γ(|umε|2+ε)p2|umε|2.

    Similar to [4,5], problem (8) admits a solution uε satisfies umεL(0,T;W1,p(Ω)), tumεL(0,T;L2(Ω)), and the identity

    Ω(tuεφ+umε(|umε|2+ε)p22umεφ+(1γ)(|umε|2+ε)p22|umε|2φ)dx=Ωβε(uεu0)φdx, (8)

    with φC1(ˉΩT). Meanwhile, for any ε(0,1),

    u0εuε|u0|+ε, uε1uε2forε1ε2. (9)

    Indeed, define Aθ(uε)=θumε+(1θ)uε,

    Lθ,ωεuε=tuεAθdiv((|Aθ(uε)|2+ε)p22Aθ(uε))γ(|Aθ(uε)|2+ε)p2|Aθ(uε)|2.

    One can use a map based on Leray-Schauder fixed point theory

    M:L(0,T;W1,p0(Ω))×[0,1]L(0,T;W1,p0(Ω)), (10)

    that is,

    {Lθ,ωεuε=θβε(uεu0),(x,t)ΩT,uε(x,0)=u0ε(x)=u0+ε,xΩ,uε(x,t)=ε,(x,t)ΩT, (11)

    so that by proving the boundedness, continuity and compactness of operator M, the existence result of (6) can be established. For details, see literature [11], omitted here.

    In this section, we consider the existence of a generalized solution to variation-inequality (1). Since umεL(0,T;W1,p(Ω)), tumεL(0,T;L2(Ω)), by combining with (9), we may infer that the sequence {uε,ε0} contains a subsequence {uεk,k=1,2,} and a function u, εk0ask,

    uεkua.e.inΩTask, (12)
    umεkweakuminL(0,T;W1,p0(Ω))ask, (13)
    tumεkweaktuminL2(ΩT)ask. (14)

    From (9), one can easily show that uεku, (x,t)ΩT, k=1,2,3,. So, one can infer that for all (x,t)ΩT,

    βεk(uεku0)ξask. (15)

    Next, we pass the limit k. It follows from (13), that for any (x,t)ΩT, k=1,2,3,,

    umεk(|umεk|2+εk)p22umεkweakχ1inL1(Ω)ask, (16)
    (|umεk|2+εk)p22|umεk|2weakχ2inL1(Ω)ask. (17)

    so that pass the limit k,

    Ωtuφ+χ1φdx+(1γ)Ωχ2φdx=Ωξφdx. (18)

    Choosing φ=uεku in (8) and turning ε into εk, one can infer that

    Ωtuεkφ+umεk(|umεk|2+ε)p22umεkφ+(1γ)(|umεk|2+εk)p22|umεk|2φdx=Ωβεk(uεku0)φdx. (19)

    Subtracting (18) from (19) and integrating it from 0 to T,

    ΩT(tuεktu)φ+[umεk(|umεk|2+εk)p22umεkχ1]φdxdt+(1γ)ΩT[(|umεk|2+εk)p22|umεk|2χ2]φdxdt=t0Ω[βεk(uεku0)+ξ]φdxdt. (20)

    From (32), we infer that

    limkt0Ω[βεk(uεku0)+ξ]φdxdt=0, (21)
    ΩT[(|umεk|2+εk)p22|umεk|2χ2]φdxdt=0. (22)

    Recall that uεk(x,0)=u0(x)+εk for any xΩ. Then

    ΩT(tuεktu)φdxdt=12Ω(uεku)2dx12ε2k0.

    Note that εk0ask. So we may infer that ΩT(tuεktu)φdxdt0 if k is large enough. Then, removing the non negative term on the left hand-side in (20) and passing the limit k, it is clear to verify that

    limkΩT[umεk(|umεk|2+εk)p22umεkχ1]φdxdt0, (23)

    Note that um|um|p2um=|uμm|p2uμm, μ=pp1. As mentioned in [12], it follows from (9) that

    [umεk(|umεk|2+εk)p22umεkum|um|p2um](uμmεkuμm)[|uμmεk|p2uμmεk|uμm|p2uμm](umεkum)C|uμmεkuμm|p0. (24)

    Thus, by using sgn(uμmεkuμm)=sgn(φ), leads to

    [(|umεk|2+εk)p22umεk|um|p2um]φ0. (25)

    Subtracting (24) from (25), one can see that

    ΩT[um|um|p2umχ1]φdxdt0. (26)

    Obviously, if we swap uεk and u, one can get another inequality

    ΩT[χ1um|um|p2um]φdxdt0. (27)

    Combining (26) and (27), we obtain (28) below and give the following Lemma.

    Lemma 3.1 For any t(0,T] and xΩ,

    χ1=um|um|p2uma.e.inΩT, (28)
    uμmεkuμmLp(Ω)0ask. (29)

    Proof. One can deduce that (29) is an immediate result of combining (23), (24) and (29).

    Following a similar proof showed in (16)–(28), one can infer that

    χ2=|um|pa.e.inΩT. (30)

    Further, we prove ξG(uu0). When uεku0+ε, we have βεk(uεku0)=0, so

    ξ(x,t)=0u>u0. (31)

    If u0uεk<u0+εk, βε(uεu0)0 and βε()C2(R) imply that

    ξ(x,t)0u=u0. (32)

    Combining (31) and (32), it can be easily verified that ξG(uu0).

    Further, passing the limit k in the second line of (44) and the third line of (6),

    u(x,0)=u0(x) in Ω, u(x,t)u0(x) in ΩT.

    Combining the equations above, we infer that (u,ξ) satisfies the conditions of Definition 2.1, such that (u,ξ) is a generalized solution of (1).

    Theorem 3.1 Assume that um0W1,p(Ω)L(Ω), γ1. Then variation-inequality (1) admits at least one solution (u,ξ) within the class of Definition 2.1.

    In this section, we consider the blowup of the generalized solution when γ>2 and try to prove it by contradiction. Assume (u,ξ) is a generalized solution of (1). Taking φ=um in Definition 1, it is easy to see that

    1m+1ddtΩu(,t)m+1dx+(2γ)Ω|um|pumdx=Ωξumdx. (33)

    It follows from (5), (9), and ξG(uu0) that Ωξumdx0. Let

    E(t)=Ωu(,t)ωm+1dx.

    It follows from (c) in Definition 2.1 that E(t)0 for any t(0,T], so one can infer that

    ddtE(t)(m+1)(γ2)Ω|um|pumdx. (34)

    Using the Poincare inequality gives

    Ω|um|pumdx=p(ω+p)mΩ|u(1p+1)m|pdxp(p+1)mΩ|u|(p+1)mdx. (35)

    Here, Ω|u|(p+1)mdx need to keep shrinking. By the Holder inequality

    E(t)C(|Ω|)(Ω|u|(p+1)mdx)m+1(p+1)m,

    so that

    Ω|u|(p+1)mdxC(|Ω|)E(t)(p+1)mm+1. (36)

    Combining (34)–(36), one can find that

    ddtE(t)C(|Ω|)p(m+1)(γ2)(p+1)mE(t)(p+1)mm+1. (37)

    Note that mp>1. Using variable separation method, we have that

    ddtE(t)1mpm+1C(|Ω|)p(γ2)(1mp)(p+1)m, (38)

    such that

    E(t)1(E(0)1mpm+1C(|Ω|)p(γ2)(mp1)(p+1)mt)m+1mp1. (39)

    This means that the generalized solution blows up at T=E(0)1mpm+1(p+1)mp(γ2)(mp1)C(|Ω|).

    Theorem 4.1 Assume mp>1. if γ>2, the generalized solution (u,ξ) of variation-inequality (1) blows up in finite time.

    In this study, the existence and blowup of a generalized solution to a class of variation-inequality problems with non-divergence polytropic parabolic operators

    Lu=tuum(|um|p2um)γ|um|p.

    We first consider the existence of generalized solution. Due to the use of integration by parts, γ|um|p becomes (1γ)|um|p. In the process of proving umεL(0,T;W1,p(Ω)) and tumεL(0,T;L2(Ω)) in [4,5], (1γ)|um|p is required to be greater than 0, therefore eliciting the restriction γ1. Regarding the restriction of p, the condition p1 is required in (24) and the above formula. As what mentioned, we have used the results umεL(0,T;W1,p(Ω)) and tumεL(0,T;L2(Ω)) in literature [4,5] where p2 is required, therefore we require the restriction that p2. The results show that variation-inequality (1) admits at least one solution (u,ξ) when γ1.

    Second, we analyzed the blowup phenomenon of a generalized solution. In (38), mp must be big than 1, otherwise (39) is invalid. The results show that the generalized solution (u,ξ) of the variation-inequality (1) blows up in finite time when γ2.
