Back pain is a prevalent condition affecting much of the population at one time or the other. Complications, including neurological ones, can result from missed or mismanaged spinal abnormalities. These complications often result in serious patient injury and require more medical treatment....

Nobes, David S., Major, Paul W., Melenka, Garrett W., Major, Thomas, Carey, Jason P.
Edgewise orthodontic treatment utilizes a force couple in order to achieve labial–lingual tooth angulation. Two self-ligating brackets (Damon Q and Speed) were examined across a range of clinically relevant torques in order to assess the loading and unloading curves and bracket deformation. A...

Experimentally Determined Mechanical Properties of, and Models for, the Periodontal Ligament: Critical Review of Current Literature
Download2011
Major, Paul W., Fill, Ted S., Carey, Jason P., Toogood, Roger W.
Introduction. This review is intended to highlight and discuss discrepancies in the literature of the periodontal ligament’s (PDL) mechanical properties and the various experimental approaches used to measure them. Methods. Searches were performed on biomechanical and orthodontic publications (in...

The objective of above-elbow myoelectric prostheses is to reestablish the functionality of missing limbs and increase the quality of life of amputees. By using electromyography (EMG) electrodes attached to the surface of the skin, amputees are able to control motors in myoelectric prostheses by...

The dynamic fragmentation of granite at impact energies of 6–28 J is examined in this paper. Results indicate that more dense materials, or those with a higher quartz content, produce less fractured mass, and have larger dominant fragment sizes and smaller aspect ratios in their fragment...

We consider the propagation of a gravity current of density ρ c at the bottom of a two-layer stratified ambient in a horizontal channel of height H, in the high-Reynolds number Boussinesq domain. The study emphasizes theoretical-analytical modeling, however, experimental and Navier-Stokes...

The role of plastic deformation and fracture during small-scale, low-rate contact scenarios in gypsum is investigated. Results indicate that the hardness decreases with increasing load, on all axes, ranging from 216 kg/mm2 at 0.25 N to 91 kg/mm2 at 4.91 N on the (010) plane and from 122 kg/mm2 at...

Sit-to-stand transfer (STS) is a common yet critical prerequisite for many daily tasks. Literature conducted on healthy STS often assume the body to behave symmetrically across the left and right side; yet only a few studies have been conducted to investigate this supposition. These studies have...
