An experimental and computational investigation of the post-yield behaviour of trabecular bone during vertebral device subsidence
Kelly, Nicola; Harrison, Noel M.; McDonnell, Pat F.; McGarry, J. Patrick (Springer-Verlag, 2013)Interbody fusion device subsidence has been reported clinically. An enhanced understanding of the mechanical behaviour of the surrounding bone would allow for accurate predictions of vertebral subsidence. The multiaxial ... -
Experimental and numerical characterisation of the elasto-plastic properties of bovine trabecular bone and a trabecular bone analogue
Kelly, Nicola; McGarry, J. Patrick (2012)The inelastic pressure dependent compressive behaviour of bovine trabecular bone is investigated through experimental and computational analysis. Two loading configurations are implemented, uniaxial and confined compression, ... -
An investigation of the inelastic behaviour of trabecular bone during the press-fit implantation of a tibial component in total knee arthroplasty
Kelly, Nicola; Cawley, DT; Shannon, FJ; McGarry, J. Patrick (Institute of Physics and Engineering in Medicine by Elsevier Ltd., 2013)The stress distribution and plastic deformation of peri-prosthetic trabecular bone during press-fit tibial component implantation in total knee arthroplasty is investigated using experimental and finite element techniques. ...
