Enhanced Mid-Flexion Stability in Cruciate-Sacrificing Total Knee Replacement: Impact of Optimized Implant Designs Investigated Using Musculoskeletal Multibody Simulation. [PDF]
J Orthop ResABSTRACT Total knee replacement (TKR) is a successful intervention for relieving pain and improving quality of life. In this context, mid‐flexion instability and paradoxical anterior femoral movement remain challenging. However, the role of implant design in cruciate‐sacrificing (CS) scenarios is unclear.

A Screw-Axis Approach to the Stability of Two-Wheeled Vehicles
Applied Sciences, 2021 The stability of two-wheeled vehicles is predominantly characterized by the well-known weave and wobble vibration modes, which have been extensively investigated in the literature, mainly in terms of their frequencies and damping ratios. In this work the
