Revision of infected knee arthroplasties in Denmark
Acta Orthopaedica, 2016 Background and purpose — The surgical treatment of periprosthetic knee infection is generally either a partial revision procedure (open debridement and exchange of the tibial insert) or a 2-stage exchange arthroplasty procedure.

3D Printing of Stretchable, Compressible and Conductive Porous Polyurethane for Soft Robotics
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.A 3D‐printable porous dopamine‐polyurethane acrylate elastomer results in conductive, stretchable, and compressible structures that can be metallized in situ through catechol‐mediated silver reduction. The resulting material function as both compliant soft robot with a and strain sensors without complex assemblies, enabling fully 3D‐printed soft ...

Adhesive Double‐Network Granular Organogel E‐Skin
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.We introduce a double‐network granular organogel adhesive for electronic skin, overcoming adhesion and strength trade‐offs. It provides reversible, robust bonding and ionic conductivity, enabling wearable and soft robotic e‐skin. Thanks to the e‐skin adhesive, a soft robotic trunk can recognize touch, temperature, humidity, and acidity.

Failure analysis of a Ti6Al4V cementless HIP prosthesis
Engineering Failure Analysis, 2007 This work investigates the causes of in vivo fracture of a cementless hip prosthesis model manufactured with Ti6A14V alloy. To this end an assessment of geometric characteristics, a fractographic analysis of the fracture surface, and a microstructural study of the stem material were carried out.

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.Combined approach of electromagnetic (Power) and ultrasound (data harvesting) waves is proposed to address the miniaturized ultrasonic implants. Electromagnetic waves trigger the piezoelectric element to generate the acoustic pulse which is modulated by the variations in the sensor's impedance.

A circumferentially flanged tibial tray minimizes bone-tray shear micromotion [PDF]
, 2005 Aseptic loosening of the tibial component is the major complication of total knee arthroplasty. There is an association between early excessive shear micromotion between the bone and the tray of the tibial component and late aseptic loosening.
