Abstract: The determination of biomechanical force systems of implanted femurs to obtain adequate strain measurements has been neglected in many published studies. Due to geometric alterations induced by ...

Abstract: Finite Element (FE) models for the simulation of intact and implanted bone find their main purpose in accurately reproducing the associated mechanical behavior. FE models can be used for ...

Abstract: Alkali-activated binders (AAB) or geopolymers are new ceramic materials with the potential to replace portland cement in a wide range of applications, from immobilization of heavy metals to concretes for civil engineering. ...
