Despite total hip replacement (THR) gives generally satisfactory results, the quality of outcome in young patients is markedly decreased compared to the average THR outcome. For this population, pharmacological treatment with bisphosphonate would be benefi ...
Method and apparatus for monitoring growth of fracture during hydraulic fracturing treatment of a ground formation. A series of tiltmeters are positioned at spaced apart tiltmeter stations at which tilt changes due to hydraulic fracturing treatment are mea ...
Objective: To investigate the correlation between objective and subjective evaluation of patients with total hip replacement. Design: Prospective preliminary trial comparing the Western Ontario and McMaster University questionnaire ( WOMAC) and gait analys ...
Creep and crack growth govern the long-term deformability of concrete and thus its service behavior and its durability. The mechanisms involved in the couplings between these effects are not yet clearly identified. The aim of this research was to investiga ...
The fracture behavior of composite rubber particle-toughened polymethylmethacrylate has been investigated over a wide range of test speeds, encompassing impact conditions. When the entanglement density of the matrix was increased and its glass transition t ...
The current research extends our previous work on brittle fragmentation of a one-dimensional bar [F. Zhou, J.-F. Molinari, K.T. Ramesh, A cohesive-model based fragmentation analysis: effects of strain rate and initial defects distribution, International Jo ...
We present a new meshless animation framework for elastic and plastic materials that fracture. Central to our method is a highly dynamic surface and volume sampling method that supports arbitrary crack initiation, propagation, and termination, while avoidi ...
Properties of the organic matrix of bone(1) as well as its function in the microstructure(2) could be the key to the remarkable mechanical properties of bone(3). Previously, it was found that on the molecular level, calcium-mediated sacrificial bonds incre ...
Nowadays, the large majority of the instrumentation for orthopaedic surgery consists of mechanical tools with varying degrees of complexity. To increase the accuracy and the safety of orthopaedic interventions, sensors and computers were recently introduce ...
In this paper, we present a case study using a spreadsheet-like interface for exploring biomedical datasets generated by a biomechanical model of the hip. The case we analyze here is an osteotomy corrective surgery that reorients the femoral body in relati ...
