Evaluation of anterior cruciate ligament surgical reconstruction through finite element analysis

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear is one of the most common knee injuries. The ACL reconstruction surgery aims to restore healthy knee function by replacing the injured ligament with a graft. Proper selection of the optimal surgery parameters is a comp ...

Changes in lower limb biomechanics when following floor-projected foot placement visual cues for gait rehabilitation

Julien Favre

Background: Lately, the projection of foot placement visual cues onto the floor has been considered for use in gait rehabilitation. While promising, this approach needs further basic assessment to ensure proper uses. Research question: Does following floor ...

Efficient decellularization of equine tendon with preserved biomechanical properties and cytocompatibility for human tendon surgery indications

Dominique Pioletti, Nathalie Hirt-Burri, Jens Antons, Cédric Peneveyre, Anthony Grognuz, Pierre-Arnaud Aeberhard

Chronic and acute tendon injuries are frequent afflictions, for which treatment is often long and unsatisfactory. When facing extended injuries, matrices and scaffolds with sufficient biomechanical properties are required for surgical repair and could addi ...

Biomechanical effects of passive hip springs during walking

Passive spring-like structures can store and return energy during cyclic movements and thereby reduce the energetic cost of locomotion. That makes them important components of the human body and wearable assistive devices alike. This study investigates how ...

Modular and minimally constraining lower limb exoskeleton for enhanced mobility and balance augmentation

Mohamed Bouri, Amalric Louis Ortlieb

In one embodiment, the exoskeleton structure is fastened to the body of the user by a brace and at the foot level. The exoskeleton includes at least one set of three joints corresponding to the hip abduction/adduction, the hip flexion/extension and the kne ...

A Closed-Loop EMG-Assisted Shoulder Model

Ehsan Sarshari

The human shoulder is a complex musculoskeletal system. Knowledge about its kinematics and dynamics can help improve associated treatments. However, to date direct measurements of these quantities can be only granted through invasive investigations or expe ...

Probing the Strength and Fracture Toughness of Hard Second Phases at the Micron Scale

Andreas Mortensen, Marco Cantoni, Goran Zagar, Andreas Rossoll, Martin Guillermo Mueller, Václav Pejchal, Marta Fornabaio, Lionel Michelet

It is known that the mechanical properties of composite materials and alloys are influenced by the intrinsic mechanical properties of their reinforcements or second phases. It is however challenging to determine such local properties, given their small siz ...

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 ...

Influence of the patellofemoral ligaments on the patellar kinematics after TKA during squat movement

Corinne Moënnat

Osteoarthritis is a degenerative disease characterized by damage of the cartilage. A solution to this problem is total knee arthroplasty (TKA). However, there is still complication after total knee arthroplasty with patella resurfacing. In fact, most patel ...
