Weak Gravitational Flexion [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2005
Flexion is the significant third-order weak gravitational lensing effect responsible for the weakly skewed and arc-like appearance of lensed galaxies. Here we demonstrate how flexion measurements can be used to measure galaxy halo density profiles and ...

A simple extension of FFT-based methods to strain gradient loadings - Application to the homogenization of beams and plates with linear and non-linear behaviors [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Theoretical, Computational and Applied Mechanics, 2022
Because of their simplicity, efficiency and ability for parallelism, FFT-based methods are very attractive in the context of numerical periodic homogenization, especially when compared to standard FE codes used in the same context. They allow applying to

Open MRI assessment of anterior femoroacetabular clearance in active and passive impingement-provoking postures

open access: yesBone & Joint Open, 2021
Aims: Cam and pincer morphologies are potential precursors to hip osteoarthritis and important contributors to non-arthritic hip pain. However, only some hips with these pathomorphologies develop symptoms and joint degeneration, and it is not clear why ...

Reliability and validity of pose estimation algorithm for measurement of knee range of motion after total knee arthroplasty

open access: yesBone & Joint Research, 2023
Aims: We aimed to assess the reliability and validity of OpenPose, a posture estimation algorithm, for measurement of knee range of motion after total knee arthroplasty (TKA), in comparison to radiography and goniometry.

Tibiofemoral dynamic stressed gap laxities correlate with compartment load measurements in robotic arm-assisted total knee arthroplasty

open access: yesBone & Joint Open, 2021
Aims: It is unknown whether gap laxities measured in robotic arm-assisted total knee arthroplasty (TKA) correlate to load sensor measurements. The aim of this study was to determine whether symmetry of the maximum medial and lateral gaps in extension and

Monitoring Flexions and Torsions of the Trunk via Gyroscope-Calibrated Capacitive Elastomeric Wearable Sensors

open access: yesSensors, 2021
Reliable, easy-to-use, and cost-effective wearable sensors are desirable for continuous measurements of flexions and torsions of the trunk, in order to assess risks and prevent injuries related to body movements in various contexts.

Does tibial design modification improve implant stability for total knee arthroplasty? An experimental cadaver study

open access: yesBone & Joint Research, 2022
Aims: One of the main causes of tibial revision surgery for total knee arthroplasty is aseptic loosening. Therefore, stable fixation between the tibial component and the cement, and between the tibial component and the bone, is essential.

Total Knee Arthroplasty in Moderate to Severe Fixed Flexion Deformity in a Tertiary Care Center: A Descriptive Cross-sectional Study

open access: yesJournal of Nepal Medical Association, 2021
Introduction: Performing the total knee arthroplasty in moderate to severe fixed flexion deformity, appropriate resection of bone from distal femur along with proper ligament balancing is mandatory in order to get the reasonable intraoperative correction.
