Reducing Personalization Time and Energy Cost While Walking Outdoors with a Portable Exosuit

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Rapid Real‐World Optimization! An AF‐based human‐in‐the‐loop optimization strategy rapidly personalizes a portable hip extension exosuit for incline walking. Real‐time Bayesian optimization of assistive force significantly reduces metabolic energy—up to 16.2%—while converging in just 3 min 24 s.

Massive Femoral Osteolysis Secondary to Loosening of a Cemented Roughened Long Stem: A Case Report

open access: yesCase Reports in Orthopedics, 2014
The surface finish of a femoral stem plays an important role in the longevity of cemented total hip arthroplasty. In efforts to decrease the rate of aseptic loosening, some prostheses have been designed to have a roughened surface that enhances bonding ...

Severe osteolysis and periprosthetic femoral fracture 45 years after acrylic hemiarthroplasty of the hip: a case report

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2021
Background Hip arthroplasty using acrylic prosthesis was once conducted; however, it has now been abandoned because of early breakages and wear of material.

Friction in metal-on-metal total disc arthroplasty: effect of ball radius [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
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.

The current approach to research and design of the artificial hip prosthesis: a review

open access: yes, 2016
One of the most successful techniques in restoration of degenerated joint functions is total hip replacement. This surgical approach includes removal of diseased cartilage and bone parts, and replacement by the corresponding joint prostheses.

Novel functionalized Ti6Al4V scaffold for preventing infection and promoting rapid osseointegration

open access: yesMaterials & Design, 2023
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.

Performance of the resurfaced hip. Part 1: the influence of the prosthesis size and positioning on the remodelling and fracture of the femoral neck

open access: yes, 2010
Hip resurfacing is an established treatment for osteoarthritis in young active patients. Failure modes include femoral neck fracture and prosthesis loosening, which may be associated with medium-term bone adaptation, including femoral neck narrowing and ...
