Particle speed analysis in CoBlast
(2015)The deposition of well-adhered thin type of coatings is of great importance in manufacturing and is used in numerous applications. Of particular interest in the biomedical sector is the deposition of hydroxyapatite onto ... -
The effect of a thermal renal denervation cycle on the mechanical properties of the arterial wall
(2014)The aim of this study was to determine the effect that a thermal renal denervation cycle has on the mechanical properties of the arterial wall. Porcine arterial tissue specimens were tested in three groups: native tissue, ... -
Intrinsic multipotential mesenchymal stromal cell activity in gelatinous Heberden's nodes in osteoarthritis at clinical presentation.
(2014)Introduction Gelatinous Heberden’s nodes (HNs), also termed synovial cysts, are a common form of generalized osteoarthritis (OA). We sought to determine whether HN cases at clinical presentation contained multipotential ... -
MEMS: Making Engineering with Management A Success

Combining freshly isolated chondroprogenitor cells from the infrapatellar fat pad with a growth factor delivery hydrogel as a putative single stage therapy for articular cartilage repair
(2014)Growth factor delivery systems incorporating chondroprogenitor cells are an attractive potential treatment option for damaged cartilage. The rapid isolation, processing, and implantation of therapeutically relevant numbers ... -
Combined influence of basal media and fibroblast growth factor on the expansion and differentiation capabilities of adipose-derived stem cells.
(2014)BACKGROUND: Interest in adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) has increased in recent years due to their multi-linage differentiation capabilities. While much work has been done to optimize the differentiation media, few ... -
Introduction to cell-hydrogel mechanosensing.
(2014)The development of hydrogel-based biomaterials represents a promising approach to generating new strategies for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. In order to develop more sophisticated cell-seeded hydrogel ... -
Postnatal changes to the mechanical properties of articular cartilage are driven by the evolution of its collagen network
(2015)While it is well established that the composition and organisation of articular cartilage dramatically change during skeletal maturation, relatively little is known about how this impacts the mechanical properties of the ... -
Biomaterial based modulation of macrophage polarization: A review and suggested design principles
(2015)Macrophages have long been known for their phagocytic capabilities and immune defence; however, their role in healing is being increasingly recognized in recent years due to their ability to polarize into pro-inflammatory ... -
Porous decellularized tissue engineered hypertrophic cartilage as a scaffold for large bone defect healing
(2015)Clinical translation of tissue engineered therapeutics is hampered by the significant logistical and regulatory challenges associated with such products, prompting increased interest in the use of decellularized extracellular ... -

Under surface pressure sensing technique for the evaluation of contact stresses
(2005)In metal forming operations, the intensity and distribution of stresses at the tool/material interface have great influence on the pattern and mode of deformation. This is due to the effect of frictional forces, being ... -
A new Approach for experimental evaluation of contact stresses
(2005)n metal forming operations, t he intensity and distribution o f stresses at the tool/material interface have great influence on the pattern and mode of deformation. This is due to the effect ... -
Use of concealed pressure pins to determinate contact stresses in ring compression
(2005)new flexible experimental technique is introduced where a tool base that incorporates sensitive pressure pins is used. An industrial - tool that contains the forging geometry can be placed on top of the ... -
Analysis of tool cavity stresses in channel angular extrusion
(2006)The Channel Angular Extrusion (CAE) technique is a process, in which a deformable solid material is led to yielding through the intersection of inclined c hannels. Compared to classic plastic deformation, ...
