The design of a reflectionless arterial prosthesis [PDF]
We propose a new technique to characterize a reflectionless arterial prosthesis. The corresponding transmission and reflection coefficients are determined from the geometric and the elastic properties of the arterial wall, and the interaction between the latter and the prosthesis are studied accordingly.

Background: The purpose of this in vitro study is to fabricate a novel metal–ceramic prosthesis with a porous structure, to compensate for the disadvantages associated with the design of existing prostheses, and to measure the internal fit of this ...

The mechanics of the knee and prosthesis design [PDF]
The mechanisms controlling and limiting movement and serving to transmit load between the femur and the tibia are discussed. Having accounted for the transmission of all components of force and couple across the joint and noted the load-bearing role of the menisci, some principles which might guide the design of knee prostheses are deduced.

Managing the variability of biomechanical characteristics before the preliminary design stage of a medical device [PDF]
The very high level of requirements for certification procedures often limit research and development departments to innovate using increments and iterations during the design process for medical devices (MD).

The loosening of traditional prosthetics is among the leading causes of surgical failure of proximal femoral bone defects. A novel compound sleeve and stem prosthesis was designed using an optimization methodology that combined an octet-truss porous ...

Designing special prosthesis "Spacer"
Malignant diseases of the medial part of the femur, humerus and tibia, treated with surgical removal of the affected part of the bone and prosthesis fitting special "Spacer". This type of prosthesis is made in the form of the proximal and distal components that connect by screws.

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,

Performance of the resurfaced hip. Part 2: the influence of prosthesis stem design on remodelling and fracture of the femoral neck [PDF]
Hip resurfacing is a popular treatment for osteoarthritis in young, active patients. Previous studies have shown that occasional failures – femoral neck fracture and implant loosening, possibly associated with bone adaptation – are affected by prosthesis

An Analysis of Theories in Biomechanics
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,
