Biodegradation of Surgical Polypropylene Meshes
The FASEB Journal, 2019 Surgical meshes of a variety of materials, such as polypropylene, are commonly used in many procedures to support tissues. From our previous studies on polypropylene meshes, samples of mesh removed from patients often demonstrated biodegradation proportional to the amount of time that had passed since implantation.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Enhancing ultrasound transmission through an aberration layer exhibiting mismatched impedance with the surrounding medium possesses great implications in imaging and treatment. In this study, we show that a space‐coiling acoustic metamaterial with judiciously tailored structural profile can help improve impedance matching.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This article investigates the dependence of the properties on the manufacturing orientation in the form of the inclination angle to the build plate of LPBF‐fabricated NiTi rods with a diameter of 150–220 µm. Metallographic, chemical, thermal, and mechanical characterization show behavior under identical manufacturing conditions that ranges from ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.CT‐based finite element simulations combined with in situ X‐ray computed tomography are used to analyze insert pull‐out in nickel‐coated polymer foams. Despite variations in material parameters, deformation consistently concentrates within a narrow annular region around the insert.

Optical strain measurement for the modeling of surgical meshes and their porosity
Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2018 The porosity of surgical meshes makes them flexible for large elastic deformation and establishes the healing conditions of good tissue in growth. The biomechanic modeling of orthotropic and compressible materials requires new materials models and ...
