Lattice Boltzmann method to study the contraction of a viscous ligament [PDF]

, 2013
We employ a recently formulated axisymmetric version of the multiphase Shan-Chen (SC) lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) [Srivastava et al, in preparation (2013)] to simulate the contraction of a liquid ligament. We compare the axisymmetric LBM simulation against the slender jet (SJ) approximation model [T. Driessen and R.

Three-dimensional anatomy of the ostrich (Struthio camelus) knee joint [PDF]

, 2014
The three-dimensional anatomy of the ostrich (Struthio camelus) knee (femorotibial, femorofibular, and femoropatellar) joint has scarcely been studied, and could elucidate certain mechanobiological properties of sesamoid bones.

Prevalence of soft tissue calcifications in CBCT images from the Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology Service at UNAB, Viña del Mar, Chile.

Journal of Oral Research, 2020
Soft tissue calcifications can indicate the presence of more serious, potentially life-threatening pathologies. Therefore, their study can lead to an early diagnosis of those conditions that have not yet become clinically apparent.

Automatic Modelling of Human Musculoskeletal Ligaments -- Framework Overview and Model Quality Evaluation [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Accurate segmentation of connective soft tissues is still a challenging task, which hinders the generation of corresponding geometric models for biomechanical computations. Alternatively, one could predict ligament insertion sites and then approximate the shapes, based on anatomical knowledge and morphological studies. Here, we describe a corresponding

Dual-Energy Computed Tomography Collagen Density Mapping of the Cranio-Cervical Ligaments—A Retrospective Feasibility Study

Diagnostics, 2022
The objectives of this study were to investigate the mean collagen content of the atlanto-axial joint (AAJ) ligaments in a cohort without inflammatory disease and to analyze clinical confounders such as age, sex, and presence of ligamentous ...

Strain measurement at the knee ligament insertion sites [PDF]

, 2003
We describe the modification of an existing method of ligament strain measurement at the knee joint in detail. At ten fresh joint specimens we used that technique where strain gauges are attached to the ligamentous insertions and origins.

Challenges of Soft Tissue Integration Around Dental Implants and Strategies Based on Material Surface Modification

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Peri‐implant soft tissue integration (STI), weaker than natural teeth, raises peri‐implant disease risk. Gingival‐region material surface properties critically modulate soft‐tissue responses, driving surface modifications to enhance STI. This review provides an in‐depth analysis of the challenges of STI around dental implants, comprehensively reviews ...
