Method and apparatus for estimating a fluid driven fracture volume 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 the hydraulic fracturing t ...

An obvious means to improve the fixation of a cancellous bone screw is to augment the surrounding bone with cement. Previous studies have shown that bone augmentation with Calcium Phosphate (CaP) cement significantly improves screw fixation. Nevertheless, ...
In the context of osteoporosis, evaluation of bone fracture risk and improved design of epiphyseal bone implants rely on accurate knowledge of the mechanical properties of trabecular bone. A multi-axial loading chamber was designed, built and applied to ex ...
Mechanical testing of trabecular bone is mainly motivated by the huge impact of osteoporosis in post-menopausal women and the aged in society in terms of social and health care costs. Trabecular bone loss and impairment of its mechanical properties reduce ...
The bone diagnostic instrument (BDI) is being developed with the long-term goal of providing a way for researchers and clinicians to measure bone material properties of human bone in vivo. Such measurements could contribute to the overall assessment of bon ...
Developing a Trauma Patient Simulator is a very ambitious project that goes far beyond what can be expected for a master thesis. Therefore, it has been decided to focus on blood circulation which is one of the three vital functions described in the first a ...
NOVELTY - The method involves inserting a single use, replaceable test probe (800) through a periosteum and soft tissue on a bone of a subject so that the test probe contacts the subject`s bone. A material property of the bone is evaluated through the cont ...
During the last 40 years a focus in research was put on sutureless tissue fusion, to handle the limits of conventional suturing such as vascular wall damage due to the enetrating needle, intraluminal foreign body reactions caused by non-absorbable suture m ...
NOVELTY - The test probe (100) is inserted through periosteum and/or soft tissue on a bone, such that the test probe contacts the bone. The test probe is inserted multiple times into same location of the bone, to create one or more microscopic fractures in ...
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 ...
