The effects of tears in infraspinatus on other rotator cuff constituents.
J Mech Behav Biomed Mater

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how tears in the infraspinatus (INF) muscle affect the stress and strain on important shoulder tissues, including the glenoid labrum (GL) and glenoid cartilage (GC), especially in relation to SLAP lesions.
- Using ITK-SNAP for segmentation and SolidWorks for modeling, the research utilized finite element analysis (FEA) techniques to evaluate muscle forces and tissue stresses during different stages of INF muscle tears.
- Results showed that while the intact INF muscle did not cause tissue detachment or disorder during shoulder movement, a fully torn INF significantly increased stress on the GL and GC, indicating that minor forces could lead to serious damage.
Transient and residual stresses occurring in partially fixed dental prostheses after the firing process can be calculated with elastic or elastic-plastic finite element analyses (FEA). In this study, firstly, the mechanical and thermal properties at various temperatures of the materials used in a porcelain fused metal (PFM) system were obtained by experimental and literature studies. The effects of viscoelastic and viscoplastic behaviours of the dental porcelain at the elevated temperatures were reflected onto its elastic properties.
