Petrescu, Relly Victoria V. Petrescu, Antonio ApicellaNew biomechanical criteria for the design of biomimetic hip joint prostheses are presented. Biofidel Finite Element Models have been used both to correctly analyze femur physiological and structural behavior and to assess a new design criterion for the development of innovative hybrid biological hip prostheses. Proper identification of isostatic lines and isorigidity regions for the sintered metal trabecular lattices distribution … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 8,616 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBiofidel FEA Modeling of Customized Hybrid Biological Hip Joint Prostheses, Part I: Biomechanical Behavior of Implanted FemurRaffaella Aversa, Florian Ion T. Petrescu, Relly Victoria V. Petrescu, Antonio ApicellaBiofidel femur Finite Element Models have been developed using specific combination of Computer Tomography segmentation and solid modeling software tools able to represent bone physiology and structural behavior. These biofidel Finite Element Models (FEM) is used to evaluate the modification of the physiological stress distribution in a prosthesized femur and to assess new design criteria for the development of biomimetic … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 8,719 accessesView PDFCite

Ali et al.Problem statement: The objective of this study was to identify, analyze and build the force equation that involved the velocity, acceleration, angle and distance at the ankle when making the instep kick. Approach: One subject which is a male national soccer player had been chosen as a subject for the study. The subject was selected from professional soccer player with … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,477 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPower Enhancement of Weightlifters during Snatch through Reducing Torque on Joints by Particle Swarm OptimizationFirooz Salaami, Nima Jamshidi, Mostafa Rostami, Siamak NajarianIn this research, an athlete's body on sagittal plane in tension phase of snatch weightlifting has been modeled in two dimensions for calculating the generated torques in joints. The error back propagation multi-layer perceptrons has been used for modeling the torque through changing the angular velocity, angular acceleration and absolute angle of each segment. Finally, the torque in joints has … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,104 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOptimization of Barbell Trajectory During The Snatch Lift Technique By Using Optimal Control TheoryShahram Lenjan Nejadian, Mostafa Rostami, Farzad TowhidkhahMathematical modeling and optimizing of snatch lift technique based on dynamic synthesis, is the aim of this study. The barbell trajectory is proposed as the performance index, evaluated experimentally by several researchers who have introduced some optimum trajectories according to the percentage of their owners' successes. Since none of the mechanical parameters were considered into the optimum trajectories, we develop … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 May 2008 · 7,721 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStress Analysis of an Artificial Human Elbow Joint: Application of Finite Element AnalysisStephen K. ArmahThe elbow joint is frequently affected by two kinds of arthritis (degenerative arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis) following some kind of injuries. There have been efforts since the eighteenth century by various individuals and organizations in modeling permanent implants for the elbow joint, but some of the prostheses have been disappointing because of lack of understanding of the biomechanics of the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 4 Jan 2018 · 9,540 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHybrid Ceramo-Polymeric Nanocomposite for Biomimetic Scaffolds Design and PreparationRaffaella Aversa, Relly Victoria V. Petrescu, Roberto Sorrentino et al.Biomimetics, biomechanics and tissue engineering are three multidisciplinary fields that have been contemplated in this research to attain the objective of improving prosthetic implants reliability. Since testing and mathematical methods are closely interlaced, a promising approach seemed to be the combination of in vitro and in vivo experiments with computer simulations (in silico). An innovative biomimetics and biomechanics approach and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 30 Nov 2016 · 8,276 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTotal Ankle Replacement: A ReviewA. Jariwala, S. Sripada, A. PillaiDespite the initial failures of ankle arthroplasty, the newer generations of total ankle replacement have shown good medium term results. Reasons stated for this change include a better overall understanding of ankle biomechanics; lessons learnt from hip and knee arthroplasty, improved ankle implant designs that better replicate the human anatomy and finally in the development of foot and ankle surgery … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 17 Jan 2013 · 7,484 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Blood Turbulent Flow in Carotid Artery Including the Effects of Mural Thrombosis Using Finite Element ModelingM. Arab-Ghanbari, M. M. Khani, A. Arefmanesh, F. Tabatabai-GhomsheArterial thrombosis is an extremely significant health problem. As a result of numerous factors involved in such problem, describing the role of hemodynamics in thrombogenesis has been asserted to be one of the most demanding and complicated challenges in biomechanics. An axisymmetric model considering fluid-structure interactions (FSI) was introduced and numerically solved for an artery with a thrombosis to perform … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,411 accessesView PDFCite
