Topographical and chemical effects of electrochemically assisted deposited hydroxyapatite coatings on osteoblast-like cells

A recently commercialised hydroxyapatite electrochemically assisted chemical deposition technique (BoneMaster) has been shown to induce increased bone apposition; whether this response is caused by the surface topography or...

An open source software tool to assign the material properties of bone for ABAQUS finite element simulations
A new software tool to assign the material properties of bone to an ABAQUS finite element mesh was created and compared with Bonemat, a similar tool originally designed to work with Ansys finite element models. Our software tool...

Investigation into the benefits of reduced oil flows in internal combustion engines
The engine lubrication system is a vital element for engine health but causes a parasitic load on the engine which increases the fuel consumption: this load can be reduced by matching the oil flow to lubricating requirements...

Systems approach to the improvement of engine warm-up behaviour
Modifications to the coolant and oil circuits of a modern production 2.4l diesel engine have been made in an attempt to promote oil warm-up to reduce fuel consumption. The new system used oil to cool exhaust gas recirculation...

Review of the systems analysis of interactions between the thermal, lubricant, and combustion processes of diesel engines
A review of technologies surrounding the thermal management system of the modern diesel engine with increased attention on fuel consumption is presented. A system-based approach has been adopted, looking at the interaction with...

Fracture of mobile unicompartmental knee bearings
Cases of fractured mobile unicompartmental knee bearings have recently been reported. The purpose of this study was to understand the mechanics behind these fractures and to examine the influence of different design...

The role of imaging in follow-up of newly introduced implants
A wide variety of orthopaedic implants is in clinical use and many new devices are brought to the market each year. The vast majority of these devices have no published clinical data. The concept of phased introduction has been...

Mono-functional aminosilanes as primers for peptide functionalization

When covalently attaching biomolecules to surfaces such as titanium, trifunctional silanes are commonly used as primers to produce surface amine groups. However, these primed surfaces are rarely uniform in structure due to...

Characterisation of the physical, chemical and mechanical properties of a radiopaque polyethylene
Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene has a low X-ray attenuation, hence, the performance of the polyethylene implants used for joint replacements cannot be directly investigated using X-ray-based imaging techniques. In this...

A semi-automated measurement technique for the assessment of radiolucency
The assessment of radiolucency around an implant is qualitative, poorly defined and has low agreement between clinicians. Accurate and repeatable assessment of radiolucency is essential to prevent misdiagnosis, minimize cases of...

Comparison of native anatomy with recommended safe component orientation in total hip arthroplasty for primary osteoarthritis
The adverse consequences of impingement, dislocation, and implant wear have stimulated increasing interest in accurate component orientation in total hip arthroplasty and hip resurfacing. The aims of the present study were to...

Clinically useful finite element models of the natural ankle – a review
Background:
Biomechanical simulation of the foot and ankle complex is a growing research area but compared to simulation of joints such as hip and knee, it has been under investigated and lacks consistency in research...

Sagittal kinematics of mobile unicompartmental knee replacement in anterior cruciate ligament deficient knees

BACKGROUND: There is a greater risk of tibial component loosening when mobile unicompartmental knee replacement is performed in anterior cruciate ligament deficient knees. We previously reported on a cohort of anterior...

Minimising Tibial Fracture after Unicompartmental Knee Replacement

Background: Periprosthetic tibial fracture after unicompartmental knee replacement is a challenging post-operative complication. Patients have an increased risk of mortality after fracture, the majority undergo further...

Influence of consciousness, muscle action and activity on medial condyle translation after Oxford unicompartmental knee replacement
Background
Quantification of the in vivo position of the medial condyle throughout flexion is important for knee replacement design, and understanding knee pathology. The influence of consciousness, muscle action, and...

Evaluation of factors affecting tibial bone strain after unicompartmental knee replacement
Persistent pain is an important cause of patient dissatisfaction after unicompartmental knee replacement (UKR) and has been correlated with localized tibial strain. However, the factors that influence these strains are not well...
