A Proof of Concept Study of the Mechanical Behavior of Lattice Structures Used to Design a Shoulder Hemi-Prosthesis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Lattice structures offer great benefits when employed in medical implants for cell attachment and growth (osseointegration), minimization of stress shielding phenomena, and weight reduction. This study is focused on a proof ...
Embedded Spherical Microlasers for In Vivo Diagnostic Biomechanical Performances
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this article, we propose to use spherical microlasers that can be attached to the surface of bones for in vivo strain monitoring applications. The sensing element is made of mixing polymers, namely, PEGDA-700 (Sigma ...
