On deforming confoliations [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Differential Geometry, 2000
The authors present a parabolic deformation of \(1\)-forms on compact, orientable, odd dimensional manifolds. The corresponding flow produces contact forms from the class of initial conditions called ``conductive confoliations''. This technique gives them the possibility to construct contact forms on the product of contact manifolds with surfaces.

Tibial lengthening using a retrograde magnetically driven intramedullary lengthening device in 10 patients with preexisting ankle and hindfoot fusion

open access: yesActa Orthopaedica, 2020
Background and purpose — Motorized intramedullary lengthening nails (ILNs) have been developed as an alternative to external fixators for long bone lengthening. The antegrade approach represents the standard method for tibial ILN insertion.
