Tribocorrosion of total hip replacements [PDF]

, 2012
The performance of metal-on-metal total hip replacements is largely determined by their propensity to degrade in vivo. Degradation occurs through the complex interactions between wear and corrosion (termed tribocorrosion) and leads to the production of ...

Soft Robotic Excretory Care Simulator for Nursing Education: Functional and Perceptual Biomimetics Approach

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A soft robotic simulator is developed to replicate the digital removal of feces (DRF), a sensitive yet essential nursing procedure. Integrating soft actuators, sensors, and a realistic rectal model, the simulator balances functional fidelity with perceptual realism. Engineering evaluations and nurse feedback confirm its potential to enhance training in
