Orthotropic index for bone

Journal of Materials Science: Materials in Medicine, 2006
An orthotropic index (OI) is proposed to indicate the existence of a preferred material direction in each of the symmetry planes of an orthotropic material such as bone. Currently, this function is performed by the anisotropy ratio (AR) of any two Young's moduli or compressive (A(c)) and shear (A(s)) anisotropy factors comprised of complicated ...

Biomechanical Analysis of 3D Printed and Thermoformed EVA Custom‐Made Mouthguard: Experimental and Finite Element Analyses

Dental Traumatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background/Objective 3D printed materials have been evaluated for fabricating mouthguards; however, little is known about their biomechanical performance in preventing dental trauma. This study aimed to compare two 3D printed polymers and three ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) sheets used for mouthguard fabrication regarding their mechanical ...

Transverse shear warping functions for anisotropic multilayered plates

, 2012
In this work, transverse shear warping functions for an equivalent single layer plate model are formulated from a variational approach. The part of the strain energy which involves the shear phenomenon is expressed in function of the warping functions ...

Standing on a common ground: a comparison of static stability approaches for pallet loading

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract At the practical level, the static stability constraint is one of the most important constraints in practical pallet loading problems, such as air cargo palletizing. Approaches to modeling static stability, which range from base support and mechanical equilibrium calculations to physical simulation, differ in workflow, focus, and assumptions ...
