Axial deflections of pins, anchored in specimens of human dentin by five different procedures, were measured by a specially constructed apparatus to an accuracy of 0.1 mu. Axial stiffness values calculated from these measurements were found to be significantly different for different methods of anchorage. Cemented pins displayed the lowest axial stiffness when compared with friction-locked and self-threading pins.

Finite element analysis has become indispensable for biomechanical research on clavicle fractures. This review summarized evidence regarding configurations and applications of finite element analysis in clavicle fracture fixation. Seventeen articles involving 22 clavicles were synthesized from CINAHL, Embase, IEEE Xplore, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases.

We analyzed the intrinsic strength of distal and proximal FeN bonds and the stiffness of the axial NFeN bond angle in a series of cytochrome b5 proteins isolated from various species, including bacteria, animals, and humans. Ferric and ferrous oxidation states were considered. As assess- ment tool, we employed local vibrational stretching force constants ka(FeN) and bending force constants ka(NFeN) derived from our local mode theory.

Bolted joints, prevalent in industrial applications for component fastening, are susceptible to self-loosening-a critical issue resulting in a gradual reduction in clamping force. Gaining insight into the underlying mechanisms of self-loosening is crucial. While prior research has largely focused on evaluating component stiffness, limited attention has been given to its impact on the self-loosening behavior of bolted joints under transverse cyclic loading.

Introduction: We propose and assess the biomechanical stability of medial column screw supplementation in a synthetic distal femur fracture model.
Materials And Methods: Twenty-four low density synthetic femora modeling osteoporotic, intraarticular distal femur fractures with medial metaphyseal comminution were split into two fixation groups: (1) lateral locking distal femur plate (PA- plate alone) and (2) lateral locking distal femur plate with a 6.5 mm fully threaded medial cannulated screw (PWS- plate with screw).

Background: There exists a need for validated lumbar spine models in spine biomechanics research. Although cadaveric testing is the current gold standard for spinal implant development, it poses significant issues related to reliability and repeatability due to the wide variability in cadaveric physiologies. Moreover, there are increasing ethical concerns with human dissection practices.
