Large injuries to bones are still one of the most challenging musculoskeletal problems. Tissue engineering can combine stem cells, scaffold biomaterials, and biofactors to aid in …
Total knee replacement (TKR) is a remarkable achievement in biomedical science that enhances human life. However, human beings still suffer from knee-joint-related problems …
Background The current total hip prostheses with dense femoral stems are considerably stiffer than the host bones, which leads to such long-term complications as aseptic …

Introduction Researchers and practitioners rely on literature reviews to synthesize large bodies of knowledge. Many types of literature reviews have been developed, each targeting …
Background Dense and stiff metallic femoral stems implanted into femurs for total hip arthroplasties produce a stress shielding effect since they modify the original load sharing …
Characterisation of freeform surfaces is an increasingly importance area of metrology. Currently the characterisation of surfaces is performed using data that can be represented …
Although several techniques have been utilized to alter micro/nanotopographies of implant surfaces to improve the osseointegration rate, it has been challenging to fabricate …
