Download or read book A Framework for User based Design in Upper Extremity Prostheses written by Elaine Alisa Biddiss and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Upper extremity prostheses are designed to meet a spectrum of user needs in the areas of function and cosmesis. Nevertheless, high rates of prosthesis abandonment suggest that we do not sufficiently understand consumer satisfaction, design priorities and the critical factors in device acceptance/rejection. This thesis establishes a user-based design framework to more closely connect the consumer, clinician and designer. The framework is exemplified by the profiling of individuals with limb absence and the subsequent evaluation of electroactive polymers as a potential solution to identified consumer priorities. To this purpose, a comprehensive, international survey of 262 participants was conducted. Multi-variate models (i.e. logistic regression, decision trees, radial basis function networks) suggest four primary factors in prosthesis rejection: fitting time-frame, involvement in prosthesis selection, age, and level of limb absence. Model specificity (prediction of wearers) and sensitivity (prediction of rejecters) of up to 93% and 80% were obtained, respectively. Design priorities focus on comfort, particularly improvements in weight, heat dissipation, fit, and harnessing options. Life-like appearance/function and sensory feedback are also of interest, particularly for children and wearers of passive or electric hands. To meet with consumer design priorities, the potential of light-weight dielectric elastomers as muscle-like actuators was empirically characterized with respect to performance, energy requirements, durability, and controllability. Challenges in these areas (i.e. low strain at high frequencies, insufficient power density, limited fatigue life, sensitivity to contaminants, and presence of hysteresis/creep), suggest the need for fundamental material developments before implementation in upper limb prosthetics is feasible. To fulfill consumer desire for sensory feedback, the performance of ionic polymer metal composites as light-weight, flexible, compact bend sensors was also explored. With linear responses within the operating range typical of hand prostheses, bending angles and rates were accurately predicted with errors of 4.4 +/- 2.5% and 4.8 +/- 3.5% respectively, comparable to traditional sensors. Future work in upper limb prosthetics calls for the union of clinical knowledge, engineering expertise and consumer experience in order to provide the best possible resources to individuals with upper limb absence. The research presented in this thesis provides a framework that facilitates such inter-professional, consumer-centric collaboration.

Download or read book Cellular Solids written by Lorna J. Gibson and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this new edition of their classic work on Cellular Solids, the authors have brought the book completely up to date, including new work on processing of metallic and ceramic foams and on the mechanical, electrical and acoustic properties of cellular solids. Data for commercially available foams are presented on material property charts; two new case studies show how the charts are used for selection of foams in engineering design. Over 150 references appearing in the literature since the publication of the first edition are cited. The text summarises current understanding of the structure and mechanical behaviour of cellular materials, and the ways in which they can be exploited in engineering design. Cellular solids include engineering honeycombs and foams (which can now be made from polymers, metals, ceramics and composites) as well as natural materials, such as wood, cork and cancellous bone.

Download or read book Graftless Solutions for the Edentulous Patient written by Saj Jivraj and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-07-21 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, designed to meet the needs of clinicians and now in an extensively revised second edition, clearly explains the rationale and technique for the rehabilitation of fully edentulous patients utilizing traditional graftless concepts as well as zygomatic implant strategies when posterior support cannot be achieved by the former means. Considerations relevant to treatment planning and the biomechanics of immediate loading and zygomatic implants are first discussed. The techniques for placement of traditional tilted and zygomatic implants and for immediate loading of a full arch restoration are then described step by step. Detailed information and guidance are also provided on the different materials available for full arch restorations, laboratory aspects of the definitive restoration, maintenance of restorations, and management of prosthetic and surgical complications. The book concludes with a helpful series of clinical cases. Graftless Solutions for the Edentulous Patient is designed particularly for clinicians with experience in placing and restoring dental implants.
Download or read book Short Implants written by Boyd J. Tomasetti and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-07-07 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive guide to short implants will take the reader through their research and development, explain the clinical indications, evaluate the outcomes achieved with various implants, and explore restorative and laboratory considerations. Short implants have steadily gained greater market share in the last decade as practitioners sought alternatives to traditional length implants in order to avoid grafting procedures. Current manufacturers offer a variety of implant lengths and widths, allowing surgeons and restorative dentists the ability to select the best implant for each clinical circumstance. Cutting edge information is provided on the research and clinical results achieved utilizing a range of implants, specifically those developed by Nobel Biocare, Straumann, Jack Hahn, and Bicon. Readers will also find an extensive description of the role of ultra-short implants involving reconstruction in both cleft patients and cancer patients who have lost portions of their mandible and/or maxilla. This book is a must-have for those interested in learning how the use of short and ultra-short implants offers both surgeons and restorative dentists an opportunity to stand out from those that use only the traditional length implants.
