Numerical and experimental investigation on corrugation geometry for metallic tubes under lateral loading
(
Trans Tech Publications Ltd
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Energy absorption devices are being used to protect structures from severe damages and reduce injury to occupants during accidents. The integrated characteristics of crash absorption devices can be classified as high energy ...
Functionally graded porous femoral stem: Computational Analysis
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Hip implants fail for many reasons. One of these reasons is due to aseptic loosening which causes bone resorption. The paper is oriented to investigate functionally graded porous stems by incorporating unique porous ...
Influence of initial biomechanical environment provided by fibrous composite intramedullary nails on bone fracture healing
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
Long bone fractures are primarily treated with internal fixation devices, and intramedullary (IM) nails are the most commonly used. Reamed and unreamed surgical procedures are commonly used to attach IM nails to fractured ...
Biomechanical design of a composite femoral prosthesis to investigate the effects of stiffness, coating length, and interference press fit
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
Traditionally, high stiffness hip prostheses are associated with aseptic loosening. Hence, the effects of stiffness, coating length, and interference press fit on load sharing and micro-movements are investigated for a ...
Effect of composite intramedullary nails (IM) on healing of long bone fractures by means of reamed and unreamed methods
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
Complications are common during bone fracture healing owing to incompatibility of the implants. Flexible fibrous composite materials are promising materials that offer excellent biomechanical compatibility. Flexible composite ...
A comprehensive analysis of bio-inspired design of femoral stem on primary and secondary stabilities using mechanoregulatory algorithm
(
Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH
, 2020 , Article)
The coated porous section of stem surface is initially filled with callus that undergoes osseointegration process, which develops a bond between stem and bone, lessens the micromotions and transfers stresses to the bone, ...
Parametric study of radial functionally graded femoral prostheses with different geometries
(
Kluwer Academic Publishers
, 2015 , Article)
Due to complex loading and chemical conditions of the human body, the artificial replacements of the body organs demand materials with superior characteristics. Therefore, recently using composite materials have gained a ...
Effect of Geometrical Parameters on the Performance of Longitudinal Functionally Graded Femoral Prostheses
(2015 , Article)
This study aimed to assess the performance of different longitudinal functionally graded femoral prostheses. This study was also designed to develop an appropriate prosthetic geometric design for longitudinal functionally ...
Study of mild steel sandwich structure energy absorption performance subjected to localized impulsive loading
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
Extensive research focus had been given to sacrificial sandwich panels to mitigate the effects of blast loads. This is due to their ability to distribute the load and absorb a significant portion of the blast energy. This ...
Geometrical investigation of piezoelectric patches for broadband energy harvesting in non-deterministic composite plates
(
MDPI
, 2021 , Article)
Mechanical energy is the most ubiquitous form of energy that can be harvested and converted into useful electrical power. For this reason, the piezoelectric energy harvesters (PEHs), with their inherent electromechanical ...
