Composite Artificial Tendons with Hydrogel Matrix

open access: yes, 1995
The brief review is concerned with synthetic model tendons consisting of water-swollen hydrogel matrix and poly(ethylene terephthalate) fibres. Texturized fibres were employed in tendon construction in order to imitate stress-strain and other mechanical ...

Spatial Stiffness Programming in Single‐Filament Material Extrusion Through Data‐Driven Thermal Foaming

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Single‐filament material extrusion enables spatial stiffness programming through locally controlled thermal foaming of TPU. A data‐driven G‐code framework tunes porosity from 15.7% to 40.7% and hardness from 90 to 63 Shore A within and across layers. Monolithic hands and soft actuators consequently achieve distinct programmed motions without material ...

Finite element study of the role of medial longitudinal arch in hallux valgus deformity

open access: yesBone & Joint Research
Aims: A better understanding of the function of the medial longitudinal arch (MLA) in hallux valgus (HV) may guide medical management strategies. The current study recreated 3D finite element foot models to assess the change in joint and soft-tissue ...

High‐Density Magnetomyography With Optical Magnetometers Reveals Spatiotemporal Patterns of Evoked Muscle Activity

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Optically pumped magnetometers are employed to contactlessly map the spatiotemporal dynamics of the magnetic field linked to electrical activity of a skeletal muscle in vivo. It is demonstrated that localization of the clinically relevant innervation zone is feasible using this non‐invasive magnetic measurement modality. ABSTRACT Magnetomyography (MMG)

Two new clinical tests for palmaris longus

open access: yesIndian Journal of Plastic Surgery, 2018
The palmaris longus (PL) tendon can be assessed with clinical tests whose reliability varies. Herewith, two new tests are described – the ‘Bunched Finger’ test and ‘Hooked Finger test’ that are simple and visualise the PL tendon easily and prominently.

Impregnation Technique Provides Corrosion Protection to Grouted Post-Tensioning Tendons

open access: yes, 2018
Thousands of bridge structures rely on grouted post-tensioning (PT) tendons. Problems with grouting techniques and grout materials have resulted in bridges with grout voids, chloride contaminated grout and soft grout.

Self‐Sealing Microneedles Improve Precision and Reduce Reflux in Subretinal Cell Transplantation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Ultrafine 49G microneedles enable subretinal delivery of induced pluripotent stem cell‐derived retinal pigment epithelial cells through a 50 µm outer diameter tip. Compared with conventional 38G microcannulas, these microneedles reduce cell suspension reflux in a rabbit model, highlighting the potential of microinvasive delivery instruments to improve ...

Comparative Tendons

open access: yes
The data are for examination of the physical properties of the tendons in the peduncle of the harbor porpoise to compare the dorsal and ventral tendons. Data are from mechanical testing of tendon fascicles by ramp to failure, stress relaxation, and crimp
