The Use of Implicit Human Motor Behaviour in the Online Personalisation of Prosthetic Interfaces [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
In previous work, the authors proposed a data-driven optimisation algorithm for the personalisation of human-prosthetic interfaces, demonstrating the possibility of adapting prosthesis behaviour to its user while the user performs tasks with it. This method requires that the human and the prosthesis personalisation algorithm have same pre-defined ...

Quantitative analysis of bone reactions to relative motions at implant-bone interfaces [PDF]

, 1993
Connective soft tissues at the interface between implants and bone, such as in human joint replacements, can endanger the stability of the implant fixation. The potential of an implant to generate interface bone resorption and form soft tissue depends on

Toward Autonomous Self‐Healing in Soft Robotics: A Review and Perspective for Future Research

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
In this article, five different phases (damage detection, cleaning, damage closure, material healing, and healing assessment) are investigated to have an autonomous self‐healing at the system level with the focus on soft robotics. It delves into the importance of each phase, why and where they matter, and reviews relevant technologies that enable ...

Use of nonrigid connector in managing stresses to the pier abutment

The Saint's International Dental Journal, 2016
The use of a nonrigid connector (NRC) in a fixed partial denture having pier abutment increases the life of the prosthesis. Rigid connectors though most commonly used, result in early failure of the prosthesis such as debonding as well as put adverse ...

Control of Separable Subsystems with Application to Prostheses [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
Nonlinear control methodologies have successfully realized stable human-like walking on powered prostheses. However, these methods are typically restricted to model independent controllers due to the unknown human dynamics acting on the prosthesis. This paper overcomes this restriction by introducing the notion of a separable subsystem control law ...

Failure characteristics of all polyethylene cemented glenoid implants in total shoulder arthroplasty [PDF]

, 2010
Total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) still suffers today from mid-term and long-term complications such as glenoid implant loosening, wear, humeral head subluxation/dislocation and implant fracture. Unlike the hip and knee joint replacements, the artificial

Skin‐Covered Biohybrid Robotic Finger with Bilayered Permeable Subcutaneous Support for Internal Hydration Supplement

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A bilayered permeable subcutaneous support system is developed to address the hydration challenge in skin‐covered biohybrid robots. Consisting of a perforated skeletal layer and a sponge‐like polyvinyl alcohol hydrogel, the system enables fluid flow, nutrient diffusion, and mechanical support.

American Academy of Periodontology best evidence consensus statement on the use of biologics in clinical practice

Journal of Periodontology, Volume 93, Issue 12, Page 1763-1770, December 2022., 2022
Abstract A biologic is a therapeutic agent with biological activity that is administered to achieve an enhanced regenerative or reparative effect. The use of biologics has progressively become a core component of contemporary periodontal practice. However, some questions remain about their safety, indications, and effectiveness in specific clinical ...

ASSESSMENT OF FAILURE OF PROSTHESIS IN FIXED PROSTHODONTICS AMONG PATIENTS

, 2020
Introduction: Fixed dental prosthesis are becoming more popular for preservation of badly damaged crowns or endodontically treated teeth and also for replacing the lost or missing teeth not only in the developed countries but also in the developing countries across the world.
