Trends of mechanical consequences and modeling of a fibrous membrane around femoral hip prostheses [PDF]
In the present study, the effects of a fibrous membrane between cement and bone in a femoral total hip replacement were investigated. The study involved the problem of modeling this fibrous membrane in finite-element analyses, and its global consequences

An unstable distal ulnar stump after Darrach resection, alongside pathology of the radiocarpal joint, is difficult to manage without fusion of at least one joint. Currently, no standard 2-in-1 arthroplasty is available.

Biomechanical Impacts of Toe Joint With Transfemoral Amputee Using a Powered Knee-Ankle Prosthesis
Transfemoral amputees are currently forced to utilize energetically passive prostheses that provide little to no propulsive work. Among the several joints and muscles required for healthy walking, the ones most vital for push-off assistance include the ...

Effects of prosthetic design parameters on running performance of a unilateral transfemoral amputee
Carbon fiber running-specific prostheses (RSPs) are widely used among lower-limb amputee runners. However, which prosthesis provides the best performance for runners remains unknown.

An investigation into a locking mechanism designed for a gear-based knee joint prosthesis
Background: The knee-locking mechanism in an above-knee prosthesis is crucially important to protect the prosthesis user from sudden falling down due to unexpected disturbance while standing upright.

Virtual Testing Method of Human Knee Prosthesis
In the human knee joint, a degenerative wear of the joint can be formed, the common treatment of this disease is the total knee prosthesis geometry replacement and prosthesis implanting, the aim of our research is the study of the human knee joint with ...

Calculation of wear (f.i. wear modulus) in the plastic cup of a hip joint prosthesis [PDF]
The wear equation is applied to the wear process in a hip joint prosthesis and a wear modulus is defined. The sliding distance, wear modulus, wear volume, wear area, contact angle and the maximum normal stress were calculated and the theoretical ...

Automated Forearm Prosthesis Controlling Using Fiber Bragg Grating Sensor [PDF]
This paper describes the automation of a forearm prosthesis using the signal collected by a Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensor. The FBG sensor is applied to one subject's forearm to measure the deformation as a result of the index and middle fingers when ...

Finite element analysis of porously punched prosthetic short stem virtually designed for simulative uncemented hip arthroplasty [PDF]
Background: There is no universal hip implant suitably fills all femoral types, whether prostheses of porous short-stem suitable for Hip Arthroplasty is to be measured scientifically.
