Eight 3D Finite Element models (FEM) were created with normal periodontium and different levels of alveolar bone loss; four with labial brackets and four with lingual brackets. Sliding mechanics were simulated as en-masse retraction of the anterior dentition. The equivalent stresses along the roots of six anterior maxillary teeth were measured in all the models. Equivalent stresses generated at the root surfaces of central incisors are always higher in labial technique and of canines are always higher in lingual technique, suggesting the increased vulnerability towards root resorption in both cases. Stresses at the root apices of all the teeth are increasing progressively when the bone loss is progressively more than 2mm in labial technique. In labial technique, the stresses at the root apices of all the teeth are increasing progressively when the bone loss is progressively more than 2mm. In Lingual technique, equivalent stresses generated at the root surfaces of canines are more than central and lateral incisors irrespective of the alveolar bone loss, suggesting increased susceptibility to root resorption.","PeriodicalId":73734,"journal":{"name":"Journal of engineering and science in medical diagnostics and therapy","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85553024","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A hyper-redundant ten-joint six degrees-of-freedom (6DOF) manipulator (5DOF rigid and five-joint continuum segments) is presented along with the forward and inverse kinematics analyses based on a Jacobian formulation to prevent configuration singularities. Simulated motion studies demonstrate the ability of the proposed manipulator to attain a desired pose (normal to the tissue) with any area in the bladder including the difficult to reach trigone area. A strain gauge-based microforce sensor is designed using finite element analysis (safety factor > 3), prototyped using additive manufacturing, and characterized. The characterized sensor was used to acquire in vivo measurements to evaluate human palm tissue viscoelastic properties. A single module of the continuum segment is designed and prototyped using additive manufacturing, and used to characterize its tension-bend angle behavior. Finite element analysis is used to improve structurally weak regions of the vertebra. A three-joint four-vertebrae prototype was successfully actuated to reach a bend state using tendons. The developed robot and sensor prototypes demonstrate capabilities of the proposed concept which could be a possible solution to quantitatively evaluate localized biomechanical properties of the bladder tissue to improve treatment and provide better patient care.","PeriodicalId":73734,"journal":{"name":"Journal of engineering and science in medical diagnostics and therapy","volume":"439 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135034488","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Gent","doi":"10.1115/1.4062107","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1115/1.4062107","url":null,"abstract":"\u0000 Analysis of flow diverting intracranial aneurysm repair devices has traditionally focused on reducing intrasaccular blood flow velocity and aneurysm wall shear stress (WSS) as the primary metrics for improved perceived device performance. However, the interpretation of this data has been debated, particularly with regards to the specific biological benefits of high or low aneurysm WSS. Therefore, this research proposes an additional parameter of WSS at the stent struts that could provide valuable insight regarding the device's potential to promote occlusion at the aneurysm neck by indicating locations of increased platelet activation and microparticle shedding. Fluid flow effects were evaluated for two flow diverters (PipelineTM and FREDTM) and three stents (EnterpriseTM, AtlasTM, and LVISTM) using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models developed from two patient-derived CTA datasets with aneurysms in the middle cerebral artery (MCA) and basilar artery (BA), respectively. The device WSS data provides an additional metric for evaluating the ability of the device to constrain the blood flow within the main vessel, as well as indicating potential locations of the initiation of aneurysm occlusion. It is hypothesized that high device WSS close to the aneurysm neck creates a higher likelihood of thrombus formation and aneurysm occlusion due to platelet activation and microparticle shedding, while high device WSS proximal or distal on the device would indicate higher likelihood of undesirable daughter vessel occlusion. Conversely, low-to-moderate device WSS throughout the device length could be interpreted as a reduced likelihood of complete occlusion of the aneurysm over time, resulting in lesser device performance.","PeriodicalId":73734,"journal":{"name":"Journal of engineering and science in medical diagnostics and therapy","volume":"23 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79298419","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet, the reconstructed aortic pressure waveform is greatly affected by load impedance used. In this work, a vibrating-string model for closed-loop wave transmission and reflection between the aorta and periphery is developed to examine the roles of all the parameters involved in aortic pressure waveform. The arterial pulsatile wave theory gives rise to the standard 1D wave equation for a vibrating string. A vibrating-string model based on radial displacement of the arterial wall is developed to relate aortic pressure waveform to peripheral pressure waveform, relate load impedance to input impedance, and derive theoretical expressions for associated clinical indices. The vibrating-string model is extended to incorporate blood velocity, and is further connected to the left ventricle (LV) to study the role of the LV in aortic pressure waveform. The difference between the vibrating-string model and the tube-load model is also examined. Load impedance is identified as an indispensable independent parameter for reconstruction of aortic pressure waveform with accuracy, and its physiologically realistic harmonic-dependence can only be obtained from the measured input impedance. The derived expressions for clinical indices interpret some clinical findings and underscore the role of harmonics in clinical indices. Some misconceptions in the tube-load model are revealed, including load impedance and characteristic impedance. This work clarifies the role of harmonics-dependence of load impedance and harmonics of aortic pressure waveform in determining clinical indices.","PeriodicalId":73734,"journal":{"name":"Journal of engineering and science in medical diagnostics and therapy","volume":"14 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72399628","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to the wide range of occupations and ages of patients, the functions and aims of implants are different. There are many kinds of dental implant shapes. However, with the popularity of dental implants, some problems caused by the dental implant shape have appeared in people's eyes. In fact, some implants were used incorrectly. This makes the stress distribution around the implant unreasonable; it not only affects the surrounding bone resorption but also causes mechanical fracture of the implant. This work aims to evaluate the mechanical features of five different kinds of dental implant systems. By applying engineering systems of investigations like FEM, five types of dental implants and surrounding bone tissue were modeled and simulated under vertical loads of 90N. Distributions of stresses and deformations in the bone were obtained and ranked into statistical scores, which were used to judge the optimum geometry of implants. Analytical results showed that the cylindrical implant, is the most optimum shape among other types of implants.","PeriodicalId":73734,"journal":{"name":"Journal of engineering and science in medical diagnostics and therapy","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83613695","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the present study, pedicle screw fixation and artificial intervertebral disc replacement are carried out between L3-L4-L5 regions under the application of moment 6,8,10 Nm and range of motion is compared during flexion, extension, and right-left lateral bending. Two level pedicle screw fusion and total disc replacement are developed in the L3-L4-L5 of the lumber spine vertebrae. Carbon fiber reinforced (CFR-PEEK) and Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) are considered for the spinal fusion and the core part of the artificial disc respectively.

The implant should have adequate time to integrate with bone before being subjected to masticatory force to avoid early failure. Resonance Frequency Analysis (RFA) is one of the approaches for determining an implant system's primary stability in terms of micromotion. This research aims to create a two-degree of freedom (dof) mathematical model for dental prostheses based on the vibroacoustic RFA approach. In vibroacoustic system, a loudspeaker or buzzer is used as an input and the displacement of implant is measured using RFA. A sinusoidal force is used which produces a combination of translational and rotational motion of the implant system. While adjusting the input frequency from 4000 to 12000 Hz, is used with the help of MATLAB which later computes the implant system's subsequent micro-motion and resonance frequency. MATLAB is used to visualise the resonance frequency, which is 6658.38 Hz in case of rotational motion and 8138 Hz in translational motion. The micromotion was 1.2692 X 10-11 meters in case of translational motion and 6.91088 X 10-9 radians in case of rotational motion. When there is less micromotion, a higher resonance frequency suggests more excellent osseointegration. For the evaluation of implant stability, a mathematical model is a primary approach which can be implemented to design a stability device using vibroacoustic RFA.","PeriodicalId":73734,"journal":{"name":"Journal of engineering and science in medical diagnostics and therapy","volume":"88 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79384971","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this pathology, the dynamic lung function and the respiratory mechanics are compromised, leading to the development of the ARDS (acute respiratory distress syndrome). The resulting damage is the progressive reduction of gas exchange and death in the most critical patients. For these reasons, it is important to study and analyze how this virus adversely affects lung dynamics. The main objective of the present paper is to propose a modeling methods of SARS-CoV-2 virus particles spread in the 23rd generation of lung tree and the mechanical estimation of how a severe stage of Covid-19 characterized by pulmonary fibrosis affects the alveolar sac expansion and hence the breathing capability of the sick person. In this context, the dynamic analysis of the influence of SARS-CoV-2 spread on human lung under real conditions has been shown by means of a numerical approach. Therefore, a multiphase three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) study is performed to estimate the Covid-19 virus particles dispersion throughout a simplify model of the 23rd generation of bronchial tree, at the alveolar region. Then, a fully coupled fluid-structure interaction (FSI) with the mesh morphing technique and solid displacement characteristics are used to obtain and evaluate a realistic wall displacement during the expansion of the alveolar sac. A comparison is made between a healthy and a diseased lung. These phases are studied under cyclic steady-state conditions The novelties of this analysis are: firstly, the innovative CFD method proposed in order to model the particles spread inside the alveolar region, and secondly the evaluation of how the presence of Sars-Cov-2 can affect the mechanical properties of the alveolar sac and damage the lung function of a sick person at an advanced stage of infection, such as a person affected by pulmonary fibrosis.","PeriodicalId":73734,"journal":{"name":"Journal of engineering and science in medical diagnostics and therapy","volume":"7 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87546451","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Significant prestress is inherent to the functional role of some biological tissues, such as skeletal and cardiac muscle, arterial walls, and the cornea. In the present article a novel configuration, inspired by corneal elastography but generalizable to other applications, is studied. A polymer phantom layer is statically elongated via an in-plane biaxial normal stress while the phantom's response to transverse vibratory excitation is measured. We examine the interplay between biaxial prestress and waveguide effects in this plate-like tissue phantom.
