Novel functionalized Ti6Al4V scaffold for preventing infection and promoting rapid osseointegration
Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is the most common and radical treatment for end-stage hip disease. Prosthesis loosening and periprosthetic infection are the most serious complications after THA, which may lead to prosthetic dysfunction.

Friction in metal-on-metal total disc arthroplasty: effect of ball radius [PDF]
Total Disc Arthroplasty (TDA) can be used to replace a degenerated intervertebral disc in the spine. There are different designs of prosthetic discs, but one of the most common is a ball-and-socket combination.

Effects of Prosthesis Mass on Hip Energetics, Prosthetic Knee Torque, and Prosthetic Knee Stiffness and Damping Parameters Required for Transfemoral Amputees to Walk With Normative Kinematics [PDF]
We quantify how the hip energetics and knee torque required for an above-knee prosthesis user to walk with the kinematics of able-bodied humans vary with the inertial properties of the prosthesis. We also select and optimize passive mechanical components
