Biomechanical Assessment of Design Parameters on a Self-Developed 3D-Printed Titanium-Alloy Reconstruction/Prosthetic Implant for Mandibular Segmental Osteotomy Defect

Metals, 2019
Patients with oral cancer often have to undergo the surgery for mandibular excision. Once the bone in the cancerous area is removed, not only the facial area but also chewing function of the patient is needed to be repaired by clinicians. In recent years,

An Analysis of Theories in Biomechanics

Engineering Transactions, 2015
The nature of the systems commonly thought of as coming into the remit of biomechanics range from 'mechanical' systems (concerned with the design of medical devices, such as implants) to 'mechanobiological' systems (concerned with the response of tissues,

Progress on Designing a Chemical Retinal Prosthesis

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2022
The last major review of progress toward a chemical retinal prosthesis was a decade ago. Many important advancements have been made since then with the aim of producing an implantable device for animal testing. We review that work here discussing the potential advantages a chemical retinal prosthesis may possess, the spatial and temporal resolutions it
