A Joint Coordinate System for the Clinical Description of Three-Dimensional Motions: Application to the KneeThe experimental study of joint kinematics in three dimensions requires the description and measurement of six motion components. An important aspect of any method of description is the ease with which it is communicated to those who use the data. This paper presents a joint coordinate system that provides a simple geometric description of the three-dimensional rotational and translational... ... hiện toàn bộ

Biphasic Creep and Stress Relaxation of Articular Cartilage in Compression: Theory and ExperimentsArticular cartilage is a biphasic material composed of a solid matrix phase (∼ 20 percent of the total tissue mass by weight) and an interstitial fluid phase (∼ 80 percent). The intrinsic mechanical properties of each phase as well as the mechanical interaction between these two phases afford the tissue its interesting rheological behavior. In this investigation, the solid matrix was assum... ... hiện toàn bộ

A Triphasic Theory for the Swelling and Deformation Behaviors of Articular CartilageSwelling of articular cartilage depends on its fixed charge density and distribution, the stiffness of its collagen-proteoglycan matrix, and the ion concentrations in the interstitium. A theory for a tertiary mixture has been developed, including the two fluid-solid phases (biphasic), and an ion phase, representing cation and anion of a single salt, to describe the deformation and stress f... ... hiện toàn bộ

A Proposed Injury Threshold for Mild Traumatic Brain InjuryTraumatic brain injuries constitute a significant portion of injury resulting from automotive collisions, motorcycle crashes, and sports collisions. Brain injuries not only represent a serious trauma for those involved but also place an enormous burden on society, often exacting a heavy economical, social, and emotional price. Development of intervention strategies to prevent or minimize t... ... hiện toàn bộ

In-Vitro of Measurement of Static Pressure Distribution in Synovial Joints—Part I: Tibial Surface of the KneeIn this first part of a two-part paper, the results of measurement of static pressure distribution on the tibial surface of the knee are presented. Results with intact menisci have been obtained from 18 specimens. Eight of these specimens were the subject of further measurements following medial meniscectomy. The study has been carried out at various flexion angles of the knee with the joi... ... hiện toàn bộ

Factors Affecting the Pullout Strength of Cancellous Bone ScrewsScrews placed into cancellous bone in orthopedic surgical applications, such as fixation of fractures of the femoral neck or the lumbar spine, can be subjected to high loads. Screw pullout is a possibility, especially if low density osteoporotic bone is encountered. The overall goal of this study was to determine how screw thread geometry, tapping, and cannulation affect the holding power ... ... hiện toàn bộ

A Finite Element Model of the Human Knee Joint for the Study of Tibio-Femoral ContactAs a step towards developing a finite element model of the knee that can be used to study how the variables associated with a meniscal replacement affect tibio-femoral contact, the goals of this study were 1) to develop a geometrically accurate three-dimensional solid model of the knee joint with special attention given to the menisci and articular cartilage, 2) to determine to what extent... ... hiện toàn bộ

Three-Dimensional Stress Distribution in ArteriesA three-dimensional stress-strain relationship derived from a strain energy function of the exponential form is proposed for the arterial wall. The material constants are identified from experimental data on rabbit arteries subjected to inflation and longitudinal stretch in the physiological range. The objectives are: 1) to show that such a procedure is feasible and practical, and 2) to ca... ... hiện toàn bộ

Biaxial Mechanical Properties of the Natural and Glutaraldehyde Treated Aortic Valve Cusp—Part I: Experimental ResultsTo date, there are no constitutive models for either the natural or bioprosthetic aortic valve (AV), in part due to experimental complications related to the AV’s small size and heterogeneous fibrous structure. In this study, we developed specialized biaxial testing techniques for the AV cusp, including a method to determine the local structure–strain relationship to assess the effects of ... ... hiện toàn bộ

Tendon to Bone Healing: Differences in Biomechanical, Structural, and Compositional Properties Due to a Range of Activity LevelsLittle knowledge exists about the healing process of the tendon to bone insertion, and hence little can be done to improve tissue healing. The goal of this study is to describe the healing of the supraspinatus tendon to its bony insertion under a variety of loading conditions. Tendons were surgically detached and repaired in rats. Rat shoulders were then immobilized, allowed cage activity,... ... hiện toàn bộ
