Reliability and Validity Study of the Chamorro Assisted Gait Scale for People with Sprained Ankles, Walking with Forearm Crutches
(Public Library of Science, 2016)
Objective The aim of this study was to design and validate a functional assessment scale for assisted gait with forearm crutches (Chamorro Assisted Gait Scale—CHAGS) and to assess its reliability in people with sprained ...

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 ...

Plastic flow equations for the local strain approach in the multiaxial case
(Gruppo Italiano Frattura (IGF), 2016)
This paper presents a system of plastic flow equations which uses and generalizes to the multiaxial case a number of concepts commonly employed in the so-called Local Strain Approach to low cycle fatigue. Everything is ...

Is cannulated-screw fixation an alternative to plate osteosynthesis in open book fractures? A biomechanical analysis
(Elsevier, 2016)
Objectives: The current biomechanical work compares the symphyseal and sacroiliac stability obtained with two systems of bone osteosynthesis. The two methods of fixation compared were the 6-hole suprapubic non-locked plate ...

The effect of kinematic constraints in the inverse dynamics problem in biomechanics
(Springer, 2016)
The inverse dynamics is a classic problem to be solved in gait analysis. The solution is the vector of joint reactions and driving actions which is essential to perform a kinetic analysis of the human gait. Multibody system ...

Fluid structural analysis of urine flow in a stented ureter
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2016)
Many urologists are currently studying new designs of ureteral stents to improve the quality of their operations and the subsequent recovery of the patient. In order to help during this design process, many computational ...

Quasi-Linear Viscoelastic Model of the Articular Disc of the Temporomandibular Joint
(Springer, 2016-09)
A precise characterization of the articular disc of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is essential to study the masticatory biomechanics. The disc is responsible for the load distribution over the articular surface and for ...

Conceptual design of the ITER fast-ion loss detector
(AIP Publishing, 2016-11)
A conceptual design of a reciprocating fast-ion loss detector for ITER has been developed and is presented here. Fast-ion orbit simulations in a 3D magnetic equilibrium and up-to-date first wall have been carried out to ...

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 ...

Analysis of initial crack path in fretting fatigue
(Gruppo Italiano Frattura (IGF), 2016)
The initial crack path is analysed in a fretting fatigue test with cylindrical contact, where there is a stress gradient and a multiaxial and non-proportional stress state. For this, a cylindrical pad is pressed, with ...
