Some new evidence on human joint lubrication.
Theoretical consideration has been given to the use of pendulum machines which are used to examine the frictional properties of human joints by incorporating them as fulcra. As a result, a new type of pendulum machine has been built which incorporates the facility to apply sudden loads to the joint on starting the swinging motion, and also the ability to measure directly the frictional torque e...
متن کاملRole of hyaluronic acid in joint lubrication.
Hyaluronic acid is the macromolecule which endows synovial fluid with its viscoelastic properties and it is often assumed these properties are important for the lubrication of the tissue surfaces in diarthrodial joints (Barnett, Davies, and MacConaill, 1961). The relationships, if any, that exist between the chemical and physical properties ofsynovial fluid and its lubricating ability, however,...
متن کاملA Note on Some Inverse Problems Arising in Lubrication Theory
It is well-known that the pressure of a lubricating fluid filling the gap between two solid surfaces satisfies the Reynolds equation involving the distance function, h, between both planes, as a crucial coefficient. Nevertheless, in most of the applications the function h is not known a priori. Here we consider the simple case in which the surfaces are two parallel planes and assume prescribed ...
متن کاملThe Impact of Human Capital on FDI with New Evidence from Bootstrap Panel Granger Causality Analysis
T his study evaluates the causality relationship between human capital and foreign direct investment inflow in twenty-six OIC (the Organization of Islamic Cooperation) countries over the period 1970–2014. We employed the panel Granger non-causality testing approach of Kònya (2006) that is based on seemingly unrelated regression (SUR) systems, and Wald tests with country specific boot...
متن کاملA New Evidence of Lubrication Hypothesis on Nephila pilipes Spider Silk Spinning
In spite of all the efforts on deciphering such spinning process of spiders, the underlying mechanism currently is yet to be fully revealed. In this research, we designed a novel approach to quantitatively estimate the overall concentration change of spider silk along the progression of liquid-to-solid silk transition from the gland silk. As a prior characterization, we first studied the influe...
