Morphological assessment of cartilage and osteoarthritis in clinical practice and research: Intermediate-weighted fat-suppressed sequences and beyond

Tom Hilbert

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is widely regarded as the primary modality for the morphological assessment of cartilage and all other joint tissues involved in osteoarthritis. 2D fast spin echo fat-suppressed intermediate-weighted (FSE FS IW) sequences w ...

An under-actuated origami gripper with adjustable stiffness joints for multiple grasp modes

Jamie Paik, Amir Firouzeh

Under-actuated robots offer multiple degrees of freedom without much added complexity to the actuation and control. Utilizing adjustable stiffness joints in these robots allows us to control their stable configurations and their mode of interaction with th ...

Analytical Time-Domain Solution of Plane Wave Propagation Across a Viscoelastic Rock Joint

Lyesse Laloui, Jian Zhao, Yang Zou

The effects of viscoelastic filled rock joints on wave propagation are of great significance in rock engineering. The solutions in time domain for plane longitudinal ( P-) and transverse ( S-) waves propagation across a viscoelastic rock joint are derived ...

Structure of viral membrane-penetrating machines by electron cryo-microscopy and tomography

Sergey Nazarov

My PhD thesis aims to obtain the structure of several bacteriophages, including so-called “jumbo” phages, using the electron cryo-microscopy (cryo-EM) and to study the structural transformation of these viruses as they attach and infect the host cell. We a ...

EPFL2015

This paper presents a numerical study on wave transmission across jointed rock masses with UDEC, where multiple intersecting joint sets exist. The capability of UDEC of studying wave transmission across rock joints is validated through comparison with anal ...

Simulation of total ankle replacement using numerical modeling

Sara Molins Cabaní

The ankle is a complex joint of the human body which is most often affected by trauma. Osteoarthritis is a joint disease that can require surgical intervention and when it affects the ankle there are two options to achieve pain relief. For years ankle fusi ...

Model-Based Estimation of Knee Stiffness

Serge Pfeifer

During natural locomotion, the stiffness of the human knee is modulated continuously and subconsciously according to the demands of activity and terrain. Given modern actuator technology, powered transfemoral prostheses could theoretically provide a simila ...

Laser scanning images analysis for tunnel inspection

Federica Sandrone

Laser scanning is commonly used in railways for detecting problems related with the clearance profile which are quite common especially in old tunnels. By increasing the resolution of the scanner system it is possible to use the images for identifying prob ...

CRC Press - Balkema2011

Background. Different rehabilitation exercises such as open-kinetic-chain flexion and extension exercises are currently employed in non-operative and post-operative managements of joint disorders. The challenge is to strengthen the muscles and to restore t ...
