Influence of Biological Pretreatment of Wooden Dowels on Strength of Rotary Welded Joints

open access: yesBioResources, 2023
Welding wood achieves joints whose strength is comparable with the strength of glued joints. When welding, the top of the dowel is not welded because of the lack of melted lignin.

Enhancing spinal bone anchor pull-out resistance with an L-shaped anchor.

open access: yesPLoS ONE
The success rate of spinal fusion surgery is mainly determined by the fixation strength of the spinal bone anchors. This study explores the use of an L-shaped spinal bone anchor that is intended to establish a macro-shape lock with the posterior cortical

Centrifugal Modeling of Enlarged Base Foundation Subjected to Pull-Out Force

open access: yesSoils and Foundations, 1998
This paper presents the centrifuge modeling of a prototype pull-out test conducted on enlarged base foundation using undisturbed block samples so that prototype values could be possible to extrapolate from model results. Undisturbed block samples were directly procured in specially designed centrifuge model containers to avoid sample disturbance ...

Pulling a polymer out of a potential well and the mechanical unzipping of DNA

open access: yes, 2000
Motivated by the experiments on DNA under torsion, we consider the problem of pulling a polymer out of a potential well by a force applied to one of its ends. If the force is less than a critical value, then the process is activated and has an activation

Pull-Out Properties of Nano-Processed Para-Aramid Fabric Materials in Soft Ballistic: An Experimental Analysis

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Single and multiple pull-out properties of a nano-processed para-aramid fabric structure were investigated. The nano pull-out behavior exhibited three distinct regions, namely crimp extension, interlacement rupture, and stick-slip. Multiple yarn pull-out

Comparative Pull-Out Performances of Cephalomedullary Nail with Screw and Helical Blade According to Femur Bone Densities

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
This paper mainly examines the fixation performances of the cephalomedullary nail for the incidence of intertrochanteric (IT) fracture to guide the appropriate fixations with respect to the bone density in terms of a biomechanical perspective.

The accuracy and effectiveness of automatic pedicle screw trajectory planning based on computer tomography values: an in vitro osteoporosis model study

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2022
Background Pedicle screw placement in patients with osteoporosis is a serious clinical challenge. The bone mineral density (BMD) of the screw trajectory has been positively correlated with the screw pull-out force, while the computer tomography (CT ...

Switch on, switch off: stiction in nanoelectromechanical switches [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We present a theoretical investigation of stiction in nanoscale electromechanical contact switches. We develop a mathematical model to describe the deflection of a cantilever beam in response to both electrostatic and van der Waals forces.
