Purpose of the study After total hip replacement, the initial stability of the cementless femoral stem is a prerequisite for ensuring bone ingrowth and therefore long term fixation of the stem. For custom made implants, long term success of the replacement ...
The primary concern for vegetable fibre reinforced mortar composites (VFRMC) is the durability of the fibres in the alkaline environment of cement. The composites may undergo a reduction in strength and toughness as a result of weakening of the fibres by a ...
A theoretical model and numerical methods were developed for testing different bone internal remodelling stimuli. The keystone of the study was the formulation of a stimulus based on the mechanical invariants of the stress tensor, which took into account b ...
