Glenoid bone strain after anatomical total shoulder arthroplasty: In vitro measurements with micro-CT and digital volume correlation

Dominique Pioletti, Alexandre Terrier, Alain Farron, Yasmine Boulanaache

Glenoid implant loosening remains a major source of failure and concern after anatomical total shoulder arthroplasty (aTSA). It is assumed to be associated with eccentric loading and excessive bone strain, but direct measurement of bone strain after aTSA i ...

Fixed and mobile-bearing total ankle prostheses: Effect on tibial bone strain

Alexandre Terrier, Xavier Crevoisier, Maïka Réane Guillemin, Caroline Sieger Fernandes

Background Total ankle replacement is associated to a high revision rate. To improve implant survival, the potential advantage of prostheses with fixed bearing compared to mobile bearing is unclear. The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis th ...

A patient-specific model of total knee arthroplasty to estimate patellar strain: A case study

Kamiar Aminian, Dominique Pioletti, Alexandre Terrier, Brigitte Jolles-Haeberli, Arash Arami, Adeliya Latypova

Inappropriate patellar cut during total knee arthroplasty can lead to patellar complications due to increased bone strain. In this study, we evaluated patellar bone strain of a patient who had a deeper patellar cut than the recommended. A patient-specific ...

Effect of Patient Specific Parameters on Degenerative Shoulder Diseases

Christoph Anselm Engelhardt

Osteoarthritis and rotator cuff tears are two common and wide spread shoulder diseases leading to significant restrictions in the daily life of the affected. The pathogenesis is not fully understood yet. A chronic process triggered by multiple causes is as ...

Effect of partial-thickness tear on loading capacities of the supraspinatus tendon: a finite element analysis

Dominique Pioletti, Alexandre Terrier, Alain Farron, Philippe Müllhaupt, Christoph Anselm Engelhardt, David Ingram

Partial-thickness tears of the supraspinatus tendon frequently occur at its insertion on the greater tubercule of the humerus, causing pain and reduced strength and range of motion. The goal of this work was to quantify the loss of loading capacity due to ...

Comparative Study of Post-tensioned Glass Beams with Bonded Tendons

Pieter Christian Louter, Jagoda Cupac

This paper explores the system of laminated annealed glass beams post-tensioned through stainless steel tendons bonded to the lower glass edge. The tendons are first pre-tensioned and then adhesively bonded to the glass. The compressive pre-stress applied ...

Determination of mechanical properties and full-field strain measurements of rock material under dynamic loads

Jian Zhao, Qianbing Zhang

We present a detailed experimental procedure for the quantitative determination of mechanical properties and full-field strain measurement of rock material under dynamic loads. Three kinds of testing methods, i.e., notched semi-circular bending, Brazilian ...

Helium embrittlement of a lamellar titanium aluminide

Philippe Spätig, Per Magnusson

Embrittlement by helium was investigated in a lamellar TiAl alloy under two conditions: Specimens were implanted to various amounts of helium up to 762 appm at temperatures from 630 °C to 1000 °C and some of them subsequently creep-tested at the same tempe ...

A meso-scale computational approach to dynamic failure in concrete

Leonardo Snozzi

The aim of the present thesis is to provide a numerical tool for the mechanical modeling of dynamic failure in concrete. This widely used construction material is characterized by a non-linear failure behavior, which is consequently difficult to describe w ...

In vitro measurement of bone-implant micromotion of tibial implants after total ankle replacement

Background: Total Ankle Replacement (TAR) o_ers the advantage of preserving ankle joint motion compared with ankle arthrodesis. However, compared to hip or knee arthroplasty, TAR is a less successful procedure when considering the relatively low implants s ...
