A Workflow to Accelerate Microstructure‐Sensitive Fatigue Life Predictions

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces a workflow to accelerate predictions of microstructure‐sensitive fatigue life. Results from frameworks with varying levels of simplification are benchmarked against published reference results. The analysis reveals a trade‐off between accuracy and model complexity, offering researchers a practical guide for selecting the optimal ...

Autograft Augmentation of Patellar Tendon Rupture Allows Better Functional Outcomes and Less Reoperation Than Steel Wire Cerclage

Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine
Background: Patellar tendon rupture is uncommon but can severely impair knee extension and functional recovery. Most injuries occur during sports involving eccentric quadriceps loading, often with valgus stress.
