RISPredicting Bone Remodeling in Response to Total Hip Arthroplasty: Computational Study Using Mechanobiochemical Model
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Periprosthetic bone loss following total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a serious concern leading to the premature failure of prosthetic implant. Therefore, investigating bone remodeling in response to hip arthroplasty is of ...
An Effective Approach for Optimization of a Composite Intramedullary Nail for Treating Femoral Shaft Fractures
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The high stiffness of conventional intramedullary (IM) nails may result in stress shielding and subsequent bone loss following healing in long bone fractures. It can also delay union by reducing compressive loads at the ...
Biomechanical Measurements of Stiffness and Strength for Five Types of Whole Human and Artificial Humeri
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The human humerus is the third largest longbone and experiences 2–3% of all fractures. Yet, almost no data exist on its intact biomechanical properties, thus preventing researchers from obtaining a full understanding of ...
Biomechanical Analysis of a New Carbon Fiber/Flax/Epoxy Bone Fracture Plate Shows Less Stress Shielding Compared to a Standard Clinical Metal Plate
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Femur fracture at the tip of a total hip replacement (THR), commonly known as Vancouver B1 fracture, is mainly treated using rigid metallic bone plates which may result in “stress shielding†leading to bone resorption ...
