Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleUsing a Truss-Inspired Model with the Uniform Strength Optimization Theory to Predict Spongy Bone Geometry in Proximal FemurHamed Pishdast, Farzam Farahmand, Gholamreza RouhiThis paper presents a new naïve approach for simulating bone remodeling process. It is based on the uniform strength theory of optimization and employs a truss-like model for bone. The truss was subjected to external loads including 5 point loads simulating the hip joint contact forces and 3 muscular forces at the attachment sites of the muscles to the bone … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,174 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNews in Bone Modeling for Customized Hybrid Biological Prostheses DevelopmentRelly Victoria Virgil Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Valeria Perrotta et al.The complex biomechanics and morphologies of the femur proximal epiphysis are presented. The nature and fine morphology of the femur head and its structural behavior have been investigated. Isotropic and orthotropic trabecular structures have been associated with oriented compression and tensioned areas of the femur head FEM models. These isotropic/orthotropic trabecular morphologies and their allocations govern the stress and strain … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 14 Jun 2021 · 6,351 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsGray-Level Co-occurrence Matrix Bone Fracture DetectionHum Yan Chai, Lai Khin Wee, Tan Tian Swee et al.Problem statement: Currently doctors in orthopedic wards inspect the bone x-ray images according to their experience and knowledge in bone fracture analysis. Manual examination of x-rays has multitude drawbacks. The process is time-consuming and subjective. Approach: Since detection of fractures is an important orthopedics and radiologic problem and therefore a Computer Aided Detection(CAD) system should be developed to improve the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 8,968 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Exposure on Fracture Healing Through the Wnt Signal PathwayUmiatin U, Ismail Hadisoebroto Dilogo, Puji Sari, Sastra Kusuma WijayaPulsed Electromagnetic Fields (PEMF) is reported to encourage the healing of nonunion fractures. However, the mechanism by which this occurs is still not known. Wnt signaling pathways are believed to be important signaling pathways in bone formation. This study will evaluate the healing of delayed union femur fracture, given PEMF exposure. 48 Spraque Dawley rats were fracturized at the left … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 4 · 14 Dec 2020 · 6,653 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Optimization of a Porous Ti6Al4V Bone Construct Using Additive ManufacturingJeffrey Wilk, Glenn Sanders, Shelby Marks et al.Patient specific implants are becoming viable treatment options in some orthopaedic applications through advances in additive manufacturing and 3D printing techniques. One potential application is for treatment of segmental bone defects, particularly in patients suffering from bone cancer. Current treatment options are: Amputation, megaprosthesis, or allografts. These treatments are often highly invasive, may require a partial/full joint replacement and are … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 2 Jan 2017 · 7,811 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFlexible Stem Trabecular ProsthesesRaffaella Aversa, Florian Ion T. Petrescu, Relly Victoria V. Petrescu, Antonio ApicellaThe complex biomechanics and morphology of the femur proximal epiphysis are presented. This specific region in human femur is characterized by a high flexibility compared to that of other primates, since evolved lighter and longer due to the human verticalposition and more balanced loading. The nature and fine morphology of the femur head and its structural behavior have been investigated. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 22 Dec 2016 · 7,855 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiofidel FEA Modeling of Customized Hybrid Biological Hip Joint Design Part II: Flexible Stem Trabecular ProsthesesRaffaella Aversa, Florian Ion T. 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 · 8,612 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiofidel 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 · 8,716 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiomimetic Finite Element Analysis Bone Modeling for Customized Hybrid Biological Prostheses DevelopmentAversa Raffaella, Florian Ion T. Petrescu, Relly Victoria V. Petrescu, Apicella AntonioThe human femur shows a high capacity to withstand external stresses and it is due to the mass distribution, morphology, and orthotropic behaviors of trabecular and cortical bone. Faithful modeling of the femur accounting for bone distribution and material orthotropic behavior is presented. The use of biofidel model is aimed to develop an "in silico" tool that could enable the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2016 · 8,980 accessesView PDFCite
