RISA New System for Monitoring Gait Training in Infants With Down Syndrome
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Infants with Down syndrome show an altered pattern of motor development at early childhood. Treadmill-walking training can be used to promote the earlier attainment of motor milestones in infants ...
Stress Relaxation of Porcine Gluteus Muscle Subjected to Sudden Transverse Deformation as Related to Pressure Sore Modeling
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Computational studies of deep pressure sores (DPS) in skeletal muscles require information on viscoelastic constitutive behavior of muscles, particularly when muscles are loaded transversally as ...
MRI-Based Characterization of Bone Anatomy in the Human Knee for Size Matching of a Medial Meniscal Implant
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Allograft or synthetic menisci have been suggested as a means to restore contact pressures following meniscectomy. However, when the natural meniscus is severely damaged/absent, the necessary size ...
Design of a Free-Floating Polycarbonate-Urethane Meniscal Implant Using Finite Element Modeling and Experimental Validation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The development of a synthetic meniscal implant that does not require surgical attachment but still provides the biomechanical function necessary for joint preservation would have important ...
