A computerized biomechanical model--Development of and use in studying gross body actions
(Elsevier, 1969-10)
Gross body actions involved in heavy industry, e.g. lifting and carrying materials, are often the cause of injury to the musculoskeletal system. A computer model is developed which treats the human body as a series of seven ...
Application of homogenization theory to the study of trabecular bone mechanics
(Elsevier, 1991)
It is generally accepted that the strength and stiffness of trabecular bone is strongly affected by trabecular microstructure. It has also been hypothesized that stress induced adaptation of trabecular bone is affected by ...
Fatigue failure of cortical bone screws
(Elsevier, 1983)
An experimental study of the fatigue life of cortical bone screws under conditions which simulated in vivo usage was performed. The two most important factors influencing fatigue life were axial screw tension (the force ...
