The automatic generation of elastic-plastic stress fields (EPSF) for structural concrete members by means of the finite element method has been demonstrated as a suitable approach for the design and assessment of D regions. This methodology allows accounti ...
The primary stability of cementless femoral components is crucial for the long-term success of total hip arthroplasty. The mechanisms which influence this stability are not yet well understood. However, mechanical environment in peri-implant tissue is know ...
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 ...
Background: Major concerns in hip arthroplasty concern the fate of bearing surfaces. Highly cross-linked polyethylene materials (HXLPE) currently demonstrate successful in vitro results with new technical procedures of cross-linking the polyethylene materi ...
The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that mechanical properties of artificial osteochondral constructs can be improved by a tissue-engineered zone of calcification at the bone-hydrogel interface. Experimental push-off tests were performed ...
Background: Articular surfaces reconstruction is essential in total shoulder arthroplasty. Because of the limited glenoid bone support, thin glenoid component could improve anatomical reconstruction, but adverse mechanical effects might appear. Methods: Wi ...
Rocks in underground projects at great depth, which are under high static stresses, may be subjected to dynamic disturbance at the same time. In our previous work (Li et al. Int J Rock Mech Min Sci 45(5):739–748, 2008), the dynamic compressive behaviour of ...
Osteoporosis is a major health problem in our aging society. This metabolic disease, which is characterized by a deterioration of the bone microarchitecture and a significant loss of bone mass, is affecting a rising number of mostly elderly patients. The m ...
This work addresses the development of composite materials that contain metallic load-bearing cords with the aim of combining outstanding mechanical performance with added functionality, including electrical conductivity, data transmission, and temperature ...
The ankle is one of the most injured joint in the body. However, it remains a new field of study in biomedical orthopedics. With the increased life span, more people suffer from arthosis and joint problems. That is why the improvements done in arthroplasty ...
