Experimental measurement of bovine caudal annulus fibrosus (AF) biaxial stress-strain states for unloaded motion segments and those loaded in flexion combined with axial compression.
To measure AF biaxial stress-strain states for motion segments free of external loads and those loaded in flexion combined with axial compression.
In vitro, cyclically...
Modeling the mechanical properties of the annulus fibrosus has two distinct challenges: the complex loading state experienced in vivo and the anisotropic, nonlinear nature of the tissue. Previous efforts to model the annulus fibrosus have not considered shear data in the analysis, yet the shear response may be critical to understanding tissue behav...
Utah State University engineering students have successfully designed, built, and tested a fully functional electric snowmobile. This snowmobile has been designed to successfully compete in all aspects of the SAE Clean Snowmobile Challenge. Efforts have been made towards cost effectiveness, safety, ease of use, practicality, and fun. Engineering an...
