RISResidual Stresses in Titanium Spinal Rods: Effects of Two Contouring Methods and Material Plastic Properties
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Posterior spinal fixation based on long spinal rods is the clinical gold standard for the treatment of severe deformities. Rods need to be contoured prior to implantation to fit the natural curvature of the spine. The ...
Simplified Multistage Computational Approach to Assess the Fatigue Behavior of a Niti Transcatheter Aortic Valve During In Vitro Tests: A Proof-of-Concept Study
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Nowadays, transcatheter aortic valve (TAV) replacement is an alternative to surgical therapy in selected high risk patients for the treatment of aortic stenosis. However, left ventricular contraction determines a severe ...
