Surgical correction of closed simple metatarsal fractures in a pet rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) with intramedullary pins

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, May 2026.
Abstract A 4‐month‐old pet rabbit was presented with intermittent left pelvic limb lameness, painful and swollen left metatarsal region. Radiographs revealed complete simple fractures of the left metatarsal bones II, III and IV. Open reduction and internal fixation were performed using intramedullary pins.

Joints in Tempered Glass Using Glass Dowel Discs [PDF]

, 2010
One of the major reasons for using glass in structures is its transparency; however, traditional mechanical joints such as friction joints and steel dowel pinned connections are compromising the transparency.

The Influence of Different Wood Modifications on Pull-out Force of Rotary Welded Dowels

Drvna Industrija, 2023
The increasing use of modified wood justifies the intention to use it in joints made by rotary welding with dowels. Thermal modification, for example, increases the dimensional stability of wood by reducing its hygroscopicity and water absorption, but it

Punching Shear Capacity Model in Reinforced Concrete Flat Slab Without Shear Reinforcement, Based on Fracture Mechanics and Statistical Approach

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 4, April 2026.
A fracture mechanics‐based model for punching shear capacity in RC flat slabs is developed, incorporates shear fracture energy, aggregate interlock, dowel action, and slab size effects. Validated against 141 tests, it demonstrates superior accuracy and reliability over current design codes & empirical models, with mean experimental‐to‐predicted ...

Biohybrid Tendons Enhance the Power‐to‐Weight Ratio and Modularity of Muscle‐Powered Robots

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 15, 13 March 2026.
Biohybrid robots powered by skeletal muscle actuators are capable of dynamically adapting to environmental cues. This study takes inspiration from native muscle–tendon architecture by leveraging tough hydrogels as synthetic tendons for muscle actuators to enhance the power‐to‐weight ratio and modularity of biohybrid machines.

Experimental study of locally loaded timber in compression perpendicular to the grain [PDF]

, 2011
Since the test method for compression strength perpendicular to the grain was changed from a partial area to a full area loading test, strength values for softwood in EN 338 were significantly reduced.

Establishment of High Channel‐Count Packaging in Active Implantable Medical Devices for Neuroprosthesis

Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part B: Applied Biomaterials, Volume 114, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Neuroprostheses have contributed extensively to humankind's capacity to treat disease and injury. Hearing loss is routinely overcome; pain is controlled; and myriad neurological, sensory, motor, and psychological disorders are managed through interventions involving neuromodulation.

High‐Resolution Regional Seismic Loss Assessment of Reinforced Concrete Bridges Using Component‐Level Fragility Models and Repair Cost Estimations

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 301-318, February 2026.
ABSTRACT This study develops a high‐resolution regional seismic loss assessment framework for reinforced concrete (RC) bridges, focusing on direct losses due to bridge repair and replacement. Indirect losses tied to traffic downtime, business disruption, delayed recovery, etc., can also be attributed to bridge damage but are considered outside the ...

Dowel Type Joints in Cement-splinter Boards

Procedia Engineering, 2012
Abstract The aim of this paper is in determination of fasteners maximal bearing capacity in 4-nails joints of cement-splinter boards of selected thicknesses and middle element made of solid wood on the base of destructive laboratory testing according to valid standards. Aim of this article is also in description of typical deformation of these joints.
