Are drug holidays a safe option in treatment of osteoporosis? — Insights from an in silico mechanistic PK–PD model of denosumab treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis
(Elsevier, 2021-01)
Recent reviews by the clinical bone research community suggest caution with prescription of drug holidays for patients with postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMO) treated with denosumab for an extended period of time. Main ...

Effect of freezing storage time on the elastic and viscous properties of the porcine TMJ disc
(Elsevier, 2017)
The correct characterisation of the articular disc of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is key to study the masticatory biomechanics. For the interval from extraction until testing, freezing is the most used preservation ...

Influence of musculotendon geometry variability in muscle forces and hip bone-on-bone forces during walking
(Public Library Science, 2019-09)
Inverse dynamics problems are usually solved in the analysis of human gait to obtain reaction forces and moments at the joints. However, these actions are not the actual forces and moments supported by the joint structure, ...

Influence of the Temporomandibular Joint in the Estimation of Bone Density in the Mandible through a Bone Remodelling Model
(Hindawi, 2018)
The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) plays a key role in the distribution of stresses in the mandible during mastication and consequently in the distribution of bone density, due to the interconnection between both variables ...

Automatic grading of student-specific exercises in large groups of the subject theory of machines and mechanisms
(Springer, 2019)
This study establishes an already defined and tested method to grade exercises of kinematics and dynamics within the course entitled “Theory of Machines and Mechanisms” of the Industrial Technologies Engineering Degree at ...

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 ...

Experimental characterisation of breast tissues and its application to a numerical model of a healthy breast
(2017-01-19)
In this work, a great contribution to the knowledge of the biomechanics of the breast has been done. None of the previous works were valid to simulate the real movement of the breast and a little knowledge existed about ...

Comparison of different constitutive models to characterize the viscoelastic properties of human abdominal adipose tissue. A pilot study
(Elsevier, 2018)
Knowing the mechanical properties of human adipose tissue is key to simulate surgeries such as liposuction, mammoplasty and many plastic surgeries in which the subcutaneous fat is present. One of the most important surgeries, ...

About kinematic consistency in the inverse dynamics problem in biomechanics
(2015)
The inverse dynamic analysis is used in the study of the human gait to evaluate the reaction forces transmitted between anatomical segments and to calculate the net joint moments resulting from the muscle activity in each ...
