A Computational Analysis of Squeaking Hip Prostheses
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A ceramiconceramic (CoC) hip prosthesis with clearance is modeled as a multibody dynamics system for the purpose of studying hip squeaking. A continuous contact force model provides the intrajoint forces developed at the ...
A Comparison of the Temperature Rise Generated in Bone by the Use of a Standard Oscillating Saw Blade and the “Precision†Saw Blade
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Introduction. Osteonecrosis may be triggered by bone temperatures above 47 آ°C during routine orthopaedic bone cuts using powerdriven saws with potentially negative impacts on bone healing. A new oscillatingtip saw blade ...
