Population-Based Design of Mandibular Fixation Plates with Bone Quality and Morphology Considerations

Biomechanics of bone-fracture fixation by stiffness-graded plates in comparison with stainless-steel plates

BACKGROUND In the internal fixation of fractured bone by means of bone-plates fastened to the bone on its tensile surface, an on-going concern has been the excessive stress-shielding of the bone by the excessively-stiff stainless-steel plate. The compressive stress-shielding at the fracture-interface immediately after fracture-fixation delays callus formation and bone healing. Likewise, the ten...

Bone Quality at the Sites of Loosened Screws in Mandibular Reconstruction Plates

1 Takashi Nuri, MD, PhD Koichi Ueda, MD, PhD Masashi Okada, MD, PhD Yuki Otsuki, MD Hiroyuki Iwanaga, MD Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Osaka Medical College Takatsuki, Osaka, Japan Sir, A lthough the osteocutaneous free flap is the best choice for mandibular reconstruction, it cannot be chosen sometimes because of the patient’s condition. Then, a metal reconstruction plate is...

Design Considerations for Symmetrically Laminated Plates with Cutouts

Earlier [I], it was shown that certain reinforced holes may be designed for elastic, isotropic plane sheets that do not alter the stress state in the cut sheet, for particular types of planar loading. In this work, this methodology is extended to symmetrically laminated composite plates which are under planar loading, and additionally pure bending moments. Since these two types of loading lead ...

application of upfc based on svpwm for power quality improvement

در سالهای اخیر،اختلالات کیفیت توان مهمترین موضوع می باشد که محققان زیادی را برای پیدا کردن راه حلی برای حل آن علاقه مند ساخته است.امروزه کیفیت توان در سیستم قدرت برای مراکز صنعتی،تجاری وکاربردهای بیمارستانی مسئله مهمی می باشد.مشکل ولتاژمثل شرایط افت ولتاژواضافه جریان ناشی از اتصال کوتاه مدار یا وقوع خطا در سیستم بیشتر مورد توجه می باشد. برای مطالعه افت ولتاژ واضافه جریان،محققان زیادی کار کرده ...
