Introduction: Synthetic vascular grafts have been widely used in clinical practice for aortic
replacement surgery. Despite their high rates of surgical success, they remain significantly …

Many active proteins and growth factors exist in extracellular matrix (ECM), regulating
important physiological processes in the body. The conversion of ECM into hydrogels will …

Valvular heart diseases are commonly addressed by the implantation of heart valve
replacement devices; however, current prosthetics remain suboptimal in their performance …

This paper presents a soft propelled arm, 3D-printed in TPU 70A, designed to be used in
flexible UAVs, an advantageous concept since it reduces risk in the event of a collision …

Abstract Background Polymeric heart valves (PHVs) may address the limitations of
mechanical and tissue valves in the treatment of valvular heart disease. In this study, a …

We consider the hyperelastic response of semi‐crystalline ethylene–co‐butyl acrylate (EBA)
samples filled with carbon black (CB) particles. Such material is structurally complex with its …

Numerical methods are widely used in structural analysis problems. In the cases of the most
complex and practical problems, they are often the only way to obtain solutions, as analytical …

En este trabajo se presentan simulaciones computacionales mediante el método de
elementos finitos para el análisis del comportamiento dinámico del cierre de una prótesis …

In today's highly competitive market, the product life cycle is shortened, and the product
development strategy has changed from product-driven to market-driven. Therefore …
