Investigation of dynamic hip plate screw systems in different lengths with finite element analysis
Objectives Dynamic systems aim to create an environment that encourages bone healing while minimizing stress shielding, which is a phenomenon where the bone loses density due to a lack of stress during the healing process.

This study introduces a hybrid robot that integrates mechanical assistance by musculoskeletons (i.e., soft pneumatic muscle with rigid exoskeletal extensions), neuromuscular electrical stimulation, and vibrotactile feedback in a lightweight wearable mechatronic complex applicable to the paretic ankle–foot poststroke for gait restoration. The system can

Compliant Pneumatic Feet with Real‐Time Stiffness Adaptation for Humanoid Locomotion
A compliant pneumatic foot with real‐time variable stiffness enables humanoid robots to adapt to changing terrains. Using onboard vision and pressure control, the foot modulates stiffness within each gait cycle, reducing impact forces and improving balance. The design, cast in soft silicone with embedded air chambers and Kevlar wrapping, offers durable,

Design and biomechanical study of slide-poking external fixator for hip fracture
Background Femoral head collapse and coxa vara lead to internal fixator failure in elderly patients with hip fracture. External fixator application is an optimal choice; however, the existing methods have many disadvantages.

Background: Fracture neck of femur has always presented a great challenge to orthopedic surgeons due to its nature of going into non-union and osteonecrosis of femoral head even with the best fixation method and adequate reduction. Treatment of fracture neck of femur varies according to patient’s age and fracture pattern.

3D‐Printing Aided Rapid Prototyping of Pretensioned Tensegrity Structures for Robotic Applications
Printing, injection molding, and assembly (PMA) is a method for rapid prototyping mesoscale, topologically complex, and tensioned tensegrity structures. In combination with PMA method, two mold design strategies: modular mold and compact channel layout, enable efficiency and scalability for tensegrity fabrication.
