Range of Motion and Neutral Zone of All Human Spinal Motion Segments: A Data Collection of 30 Years of In Vitro Experiments Performed Under Standardized Testing Conditions. [PDF]
A comprehensive overview of the range of motion (RoM) and neutral zone (NZ) values of all spinal levels is presented, which were collected during 30 years of in vitro experiments under standardized testing conditions in one institution. This unique summary of RoM and NZ data, acquired under the same loading conditions in the same testing device ...

Using analytical solutions to analyze the state of the bodies at the research and engineering calculations provides computing resources. We propose a methodology for structuring full parametric solutions to the problems of mathematical physics, including

The Stokes Paradox in Inhomogeneous Elastostatics [PDF]
We prove that the displacement problem of inhomogeneous elastostatics in a two--dimensional exterior Lipschitz domain has a unique solution with finite Dirichlet integral $\u$, vanishing uniformly at infinity if and only if the boundary datum satisfies a suitable compatibility condition (Stokes' paradox).

Scaling in Anti-Plane Elasticity on Random Shear Modulus Fields with Fractal and Hurst Effects
The scale dependence of the effective anti-plane shear modulus response in microstructures with statistical ergodicity and spatial wide-sense stationarity is investigated.

Finite element formulations for 3D convex polyhedra in nonlinear continuum mechanics
In this paper, we present finite element formulations for general three-dimensional convex polyhedra for use in a common finite element framework that are well suited, e.g., for modeling complex granular materials and for mesh refinements.

The Green's and the Eshelby's identities in generalised continua and in dielectrics [PDF]
In 1973, A. E. Green pointed out several interesting formulae, which hold true in finite elasticity [1]. One of them (formula (2.10), p.75) is repeatedly quoted in the literature as the Green identity.

Pragmatic solvers for 3D Stokes and elasticity problems with heterogeneous coefficients: evaluating modern incomplete LDLT preconditioners [PDF]
The need to solve large saddle point systems within computational Earth sciences is ubiquitous. Physical processes giving rise to these systems include porous flow (the Darcy equations), poroelasticity, elastostatics, and highly viscous flows (the Stokes

A degenerating Robin-type traction problem in a periodic domain
We consider a linearly elastic material with a periodic set of voids. On the boundaries of the voids we set a Robin-type traction condition. Then, we investigate the asymptotic behavior of the displacement solution as the Robin condition turns into a ...

In this chapter, we are going to describe the main features as well as the basic steps of the Boundary Element Method (BEM) as applied to elastostatic problems and to compare them with other numerical procedures. As we shall show, it is easy to appreciate the adventages of the BEM, but it is also advisable to refrain from a possible unrestrained ...
