Biomechanical phenomena involved in facial trauma: an integrative review [PDF]

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Cirurgia Plástica (RBCP) – Brazilian Journal of Plastic Sugery, 2020
Introduction: Trauma is defined as an injury that leads to changes in an individual's structure due to the energy exchange between tissues and the environment. Because of its location, the maxillofacial skeleton is commonly affected by trauma. Besides, existing studies that seek to address the theme commonly do so in a fragmented way, focused only on a

COORDINATED PHENOMENA IN THE MARINE DEMOSPONGE CHONDROSIA RENIFORMIS: PHYSIOLOGICAL, MORPHOLOGICAL, BIOMECHANICAL AND BIOCHEMICAL ASPECTS. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Although sponges (phylum Porifera) are still often considered to be simple, inactive animals, both larvae and adults of different species show clear coordination phenomena triggered by both extrinsic and intrinsic stimuli. Moreover although sponges lack a nervous system, they show a range of behavioural responses that are affected by exogenously ...

Interfacial phenomena of water striders on water surfaces: a review from biology to biomechanics

open access: yesZoological Research, 2020
Water striders have intrigued researchers for centuries from the viewpoints of biology to biomechanics. In this review, we introduce the basic theories and techniques of physics and force measurement for biomechanical research into water striders. Morphological and behavioral traits of water striders are summarized and discussed from biomechanical ...

Multi-scale biomechanical study of transport phenomena in the intervertebral disc

open access: yes, 2023
Intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration is primarily involved in back pain, a morbidity that strongly affects the quality of life of individuals nowadays. Lumbar IVDs undergo stressful mechanical loads while being the largest avascular tissues in our body: Mechanical principles alone cannot unravel the intricate phenomena that occur at the cellular ...

An MRI-based leg model used to simulate biomechanical phenomena during cuff algometry: a finite element study [PDF]

open access: yesMedical & Biological Engineering & Computing, 2015
Cuff pressure stimulation is applicable for assessing deep-tissue pain sensitivity by exciting a variety of deep-tissue nociceptors. In this study, the relative transfer of biomechanical stresses and strains from the cuff via the skin to the muscle and the somatic tissue layers around bones were investigated.

Micromotion Phenomena at the Implant Bone Interface: A Biomechanical and Histomorphometric Study

open access: yesJournal of Dental and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2018
Purpose: Excessive micromotion at the implant-bone interface may result in fibrous encapsulation instead of osseointegration of dental implants. This study quantified micromotion of implants placed in polyurethane foam and sheep tibia and tried to establish correlations with histologic parameters. Method: Dental implants (n=5) were placed in the tibiae

Medial knee cartilage is unlikely to withstand a lifetime of running without positive adaptation: a theoretical biomechanical model of failure phenomena

open access: yesPeerJ, 2020
Runners on average do not have a high risk of developing knee osteoarthritis, even though running places very high loads on the knee joint. Here we used gait analysis, musculoskeletal modeling, and a discrete-element model of knee contact mechanics to estimate strains of the medial knee cartilage in walking and running in 22 young adults (age 23 ± 3 ...

A new biomechanical FE model for blunt thoracic impact

open access: yes, 2023
International audienceIn the field of biomechanics, numerical procedures can be used to understand complex phenomena that cannot be analyzed with experimental setups. The use of experimental data from human cadavers can present ethical issues that can be
