Real-Time Wireless Platform for In Vivo Monitoring of Bone Regeneration
(MDPI, 2020-08)
For the monitoring of bone regeneration processes, the instrumentation of the fixation is an increasingly common technique to indirectly measure the evolution of bone formation instead of ex vivo measurements or traditional ...

Design of lead-free PVDF/CNT/BaTiO3 piezocomposites for sensing and energy harvesting: The role of polycrystallinity, nanoadditives, and anisotropy
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2020-01)
Lead-free piezoelectric composites with polymeric matrices offer a scalable and eco-friendly solution to sensing and energy harvesting applications. Piezoelectric polymers such as PVDF are particularly interesting because ...

On the Use of Bone Remodelling Models to Estimate the Density Distribution of Bones. Uniqueness of the Solution
(Public Library of Science, 2016)
Bone remodelling models are widely used in a phenomenological manner to estimate numerically the distribution of apparent density in bones from the loads they are daily subjected to. These simulations start from an ...

Determination of the fast-ion phase-space coverage for the fild spatial array of the ASDEX upgrade tokamak
(Institute of Physics Publishing, 2019)
The fast-ion phase-space coverage of the ASDEX Upgrade Fast-Ion Loss Detectors (FILD) has been estimated and the results are presented here. To that end, a numerical tool has been developed to determine particle orbits ...

Analytical expressions to estimate the effective piezoelectric tensor of a textured polycrystal for any crystal symmetry
(Elsevier, 2020-12)
This work introduces a set of analytical expressions that simplify the procedure for obtaining closed-form formulas to estimate the effective piezoelectric properties of polycrystalline aggregates formed by crystals of all ...

A fast and non-degenerate scheme for the evaluation of the 3D fundamental solution and its derivatives for fully anisotropic magneto-electro-elastic materials
(Elsevier, 2019-08)
A new expression for the fundamental solution is introduced, presenting three relevant characteristics: (i) it is explicit in terms of the Stroh's eigenvalues, (ii) it remains well-defined when some Stroh's eigenvalues are ...

Aplicación de la mecánica de fluidos y la simulación: Tracto urinario y catéteres ureterales
(INIESTARES S.A., 2016)
The mechanics of urine during its transport from the renal pelvis to the bladder is of great interest for urologists. The knowledge of the different physical variables and their interrelationship, both in physiologic ...

Elastic properties of woven bone: effect of mineral content and collagen fibrils orientation
(Springer, 2017)
Woven bone is a type of tissue that forms mainly during fracture healing or fetal bone development. Its microstructure can be modeled as a composite with a matrix of mineral (hydroxyapatite) and inclusions of collagen ...

Multiscale Characterisation of Cortical Bone Tissue
(MDPI, 2019-12)
Multiscale analysis has become an attractive technique to predict the behaviour of materials whose microstructure strongly changes spatially or among samples, with that microstructure controlling the local constitutive ...
