Use of Robotic Manipulators to Study Diarthrodial Joint Function
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Diarthrodial joint function is mediated by a complex interaction between bones, ligaments, capsules, articular cartilage, and muscles. To gain a better understanding of injury mechanisms and to improve surgical procedures, ...
Effect of the Material Properties and Knee Position to the Bone Bruise Pattern in Skeletally Mature and Immature Subjects
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A bone bruise is generated by a bony collision that could occur when the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is injured, and its pattern reflects the injury mechanism and skeletal maturity. Thus, the bone bruise pattern is ...
A Validated, Specimen-Specific Finite Element Model of the Supraspinatus Tendon Mechanical Environment
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Rotator cuff tears are a significant clinical problem previously investigated by unvalidated computational models that either use simplified geometry or isotropic elastic material properties to represent the tendon. The ...
