Finite element modelling of shock-induced damages on ceramic hip prostheses [PDF]
ISRN Materials Science (2011) ID 121486, 2012 The aim of this work was to simulate the behaviour of hip prostheses under mechanical shocks. When hip joint is replaced by prosthesis, during the swing phase of the leg, a microseparation between the prosthetic head and the cup could occur. Two different sizes of femoral heads were studied: 28 and 32 mm diameter, made, respectively, in alumina and ...

Haptic Shared Control Improves Neural Efficiency During Myoelectric Prosthesis Use [PDF]
, 2022 Clinical myoelectric prostheses lack the sensory feedback and sufficient dexterity required to complete activities of daily living efficiently and accurately. Providing haptic feedback of relevant environmental cues to the user or imbuing the prosthesis with autonomous control authority have been separately shown to improve prosthesis utility.
