Background: Flexor tendon injury constitutes a considerable trauma workload for hand
surgeons, and a vast amount of research is dedicated toward improving outcomes in tendon …

Ever since its introduction over five decades ago, geometric solid modeling has been crucial
for engineering design purposes and is used in engineering software packages such as …

Tendon-bone healing is essential for an effective rotator cuff tendon repair surgery, however,
this remains a significant challenge due to the lack of biomaterials with high strength and …

Traditional flash diffusivity evaluation of thermal diffusivity/conductivity of composite tubes
require machining of specimens. For a thin-wall tube, this method can only be used to obtain …

Abstract Characterization of the mechanical properties of tissue can help to understand
tissue mechanobiology, including disease diagnosis and progression. Indentation is …

Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a successful procedure for osteoarthritis. However, some
patients (19%) do have pain after surgery. A finite element model was developed based on …

The management of flexor tendon injury has seen many iterations over the years, but more
substantial innovations in practice have been sadly lacking. The aim of this study was to …

The fallopian tube (FT) plays a crucial role in the reproductive process by providing an ideal
biomechanical and biochemical environment for fertilization and early embryo development …

Rotator cuff tear of shoulder is a common tendon injury. Current therapeutic strategies are
unsatisfactory because of poor biomechanical properties of the repaired rotator cuff tendons …

Under cyclic loading, we recorded the fatigue strength of a six-strand tendon repair with
different symmetry in the lengths of suture purchase in two stumps of 120 dental rolls and in …
