Material Selection and Geometric Design for Few‐filament Shape Memory Polymer Yarns for Force Generation

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A custom shape memory polymer material selection process relates quantitative application criteria (e.g., compression garment yarns) to material characterization information. The selected materials are manufactured into yarn geometries, which expand the design space by creating structural stress‐strain profiles beyond the nominal material stress‐strain

Additive‐Manufactured, Multifunctional Bioreactor Technology for Dynamic Culture of 3D Bioprinted Tissue Models

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
We introduce an additively manufactured bioreactor with a perfusion flow system and integrated temperature and pH sensors for skeletal muscle tissue biofabrication. The bioreactor's performance was evaluated by assessing the viability, spreading of the myoblast cells in a printed scaffold, and contraction of the isolated murine musculi interossei ...

Coracoacromial ligament integrity influences scapular spine strain after reverse shoulder arthroplasty

JSES International
Background: The purpose of this biomechanical study was to examine the effect of coracoacromial (CA) ligament state (intact vs. released) and arm position on acromial and scapular spine strain following reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA). Methods:

Multiobjective Codesign Optimization of a Planar Pneumatic Artificial Muscle‐Based Snake‐Like Robot for Enhanced Agility and Energy Efficiency

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A codesign multiobjective optimization framework was developed to enhance the morphology and controller of a snake‐like robot driven by artificial muscles. It improved planar locomotion, agility, and power efficiency. The approach optimized link geometry and controller gains, revealing that shorter muscles near joints and longer linkages maximize ...

Arthroscopy-Assisted Transosseous Lower Trapezius Transfer With Peroneus Longus Autograft Using a Reusable Transosseous Repair System for Massive Irreparable Cuff Tears

Arthroscopy Techniques
Tendon transfers are preferred in patients with massive, irreparable posterosuperior rotator cuff tears without glenohumeral arthritis. Recently, a surge of lower trapezius transfer over latissimus dorsi transfer has been observed due to its ...
