Abstract: Scaffolds play an essential role in bone healing by providing temporary structural support to the native bone tissue and by hosting bone cells. To this end, several biomaterials and manufacturing methods have been proposed. ...

Abstract: Human tibia, the second largest bone in human body, is made of complex biological material having inhomogeneity and anisotropy in such a manner that makes it a functionally graded material. While analyses of human tibia ...

Abstract: This study aims to predict mechanical properties of scaffolds made of bioactive glass-carbon nanotube (CNT) composite through finite element analysis (FEA) and their permeability using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) ...

Abstract: Systemic administration of drugs in tumors is a challenging task due to unorganized microvasculature and nonuniform extravasation. There is an imperative need to understand the transport behavior of drugs when administered ...

Abstract: Drug distribution in tumors is strongly dependent on tumor biological properties such as tumor volume, vasculature, and porosity. An understanding of the drug distribution pattern in tumors can help in enhancing the ...

Abstract: The growing terrorism threat based on the use of special nuclear materials (SNMs), which includes highly enriched uranium (HEU), weapons-grade plutonium (WGPu), or high-activity radiological sources has reinforced the need ...

Abstract: Fracture may occur in human lower leg bones considering varying loads acting on them while performing various functions. Implants, commonly used in healing the fractures, must be properly aligned with the bones' anatomical ...
