Clearing the hurdles for nanotechnology: In vivo inhalation effects
(2010-03)
INTRODUCTION: Nanoparticles of many types have been created for industrial and medical applications. Among these nanoparticles, single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) are of high interest for their physicochemical properties ...
Effect of Radius on Load Distribution within Mouse Forearm Structure: Experimental and Numerical Analyses
(2010-03)
It has been hypothesized that osteocytes are stimulated by local strain distribution within the bone subjected to mechanical loadings. This collaborative research project between bone biologists and mechanical engineers ...
Flexible Carbon Nanotube-Based Strain Gage Sensors
(2010-03)
Aging brings about dramatic changes in the skeleton and other organ systems. Major skeletal diseases associated with aging include osteoporosis and attendant fractures (hip, spine and wrist or Collies) and osteoarthritis ...
Development of a Telemetry Unit for Wireless Monitoring of Bone Strain
(2010-03)
A telemetry unit designed to monitor strain in bones is presented. This unit allows studying the relationship between bone load and bone mass in scenarios that were not possible with current setup. The current measuring ...
