RISEffect of Potting Technique on the Measurement of Six Degree of Freedom Viscoelastic Properties of Human Lumbar Spine Segments
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) and Wood's Metal are fixation media for biomechanical testing; however, the effect of each potting medium on the measured six degreeoffreedom (DOF) mechanical properties of human lumbar ...
Stiffness Analysis and Control of a Stewart Platform Based Manipulator With Decoupled Sensor–Actuator Locations for Ultrahigh Accuracy Positioning Under Large External Loads
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Robot frame compliance has a large negative effect on the global accuracy of the system when large external forces/torques are exerted. This phenomenon is particularly problematic in applications where the robot is required ...
Investigating the Effect of Axial Compression and Distraction on Cervical Facet Mechanics During Supraphysiologic Anterior Shear
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Bilateral cervical facet dislocation (BFD) with facet fracture (Fx) often causes tetraplegia but is rarely recreated experimentally, possibly due to a lack of muscle replication. Intervertebral axial compression (due to ...
