Carey, Jason P., Evans, Katherine R.
A tubular braided composite bone cast for improving the efficiency and quality of bone fracture treatment is investigated. Finite element analysis was used to evaluate stress concentrations in fracture sites supported with plate and tubular casts. The stress in a plated bone is 768 % of that in a...

FEM Simulation of Non-Progressive Growth from Asymmetric Loading and Vicious Cycle Theory: Scoliosis Study Proof of Concept
Download2010
Fok, Jonathan W., Carey, Jason P., Adeeb, Samer
Scoliosis affects about 1-3% of the adolescent population, with 80% of cases being idiopathic. There is currently a lack of understanding regarding the biomechanics of scoliosis, current treatment methods can be further improved with a greater understanding of scoliosis growth patterns. The...

Attard, Erica, Antoun, Sylvie, Hatefraad, Pedram, Dworkin, Seth B.
With the increasing concern of climate change and greenhouse gas emissions, innovative solutions to produce energy via renewable sources are needed. Geothermal energy has the potential to provide heating and cooling to residential and commercial buildings, however, its implementation has been...

We present an analytical solution for buoyancy-driven “filling box” flows in axisymmetric porous media having closed bottom and side boundaries. The flow consists first and foremost of a descending, point source plume. When plume fluid reaches the (horizontal) bottom boundary, it begins to flow...

We report upon a theoretical and experimental investigation of a porous medium ‘filling box’ flow by specifically examining the details of the laminar descending plume and its outflow in a control volume having an impermeable bottom boundary and sidewalls. The plume outflow initially comprises a...

Finite plane deformations of elastic solids reinforced with fibers resistant to flexure: complete solution
Download2018-01-12
A model for the deformation of an elastic solid reinforced by embedded fibers is presented in which elastic resistance of the fibers to bending is incorporated. Within the framework of strain-gradient elasticity, we formulated the equilibrium equations and necessary boundary conditions which...
