Biomechanics of the Shoulder [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy, 1985
The terminology of engineering has made biomechanics unnecessarily confusing and intimidating to many clinicians. Frankel and Burnstein's4 classic text on orthopedic biomechanics was so difficult to understand that it was not fully appreciated. Fortunately, the gap between mechanical engineers and clinicians has been ~losing.'C~o - operation between ...

Biomechanics of corneal ectasia and biomechanical treatments [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 2014
Many algorithms exist for the topographic/tomographic detection of corneas at risk for post-refractive surgery ectasia. It is proposed that the reason for the difficulty in finding a universal screening tool based on corneal morphologic features is that curvature, elevation, and pachymetric changes are all secondary signs of keratoconus and post ...

Tissue Engineering for Periodontal Ligament Regeneration: Biomechanical Specifications [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biomechanical Engineering, American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2021, 143 (3), 2020
The periodontal biomechanical environment is very difficult to investigate. By the complex geometry and composition of the periodontal ligament, its mechanical behavior is very dependent on the type of loading (compressive vs. tensile loading; static vs. cyclic loading; uniaxial vs.

The biomechanical integrin [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biomechanics, 2010
The integrin lies at the center of our efforts to understand mechanotransduction in the human body. Over the past two decades, a wealth of information has yielded important insights into integrin structure and functioning in biochemical pathways; however, relatively little emphasis has been placed on mechanics.

Spatio-temporal characterization of fracture healing patterns and assessment of biomaterials by time-lapsed in vivo micro-computed tomography

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Thorough preclinical evaluation of functionalized biomaterials for treatment of large bone defects is essential prior to clinical application. Using in vivo micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) and mouse femoral defect models with different defect sizes,
