The Statistical Nature of Fatigue Crack Propagation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A statistical investigation of the fatigue crack propagation process was conducted. Sixty-eight replicate constant amplitude crack propagation tests were conducted on 2024-T3 aluminum alloy. From ...
Determining the In-Vivo Areas of Contact in the Canine Shoulder
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The mathematical representation of the articular surfaces of anatomical joints can be obtained in a piecewise continuous fashion using parametric surface patches. The relative position of the ...
Integration of Microstructural Development and Properties Design Into the CAD/CAM Environment
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This investigation incorporates the development and control of microstructure and properties into a computer aided design/computer aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) environment for materials design. An ...
Stiffening of the Femoral Head Due to Intertrabecular Fluid and Intraosseous Pressure
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The mechanical properties of cancellous bone, as measured from bone plug samples, have been widely documented. However, few tests have been attempted to explore the effects the intertrabecular ...
In Vivo Observations of Hydraulic Stiffening in the Canine Femoral Head
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The role that intertrabecular contents and their boundary conditions have on the dynamic mechanical response of canine femoral heads was investigated in vivo. Femoral heads from paired intact ...
