A pile foundation is commonly adopted for transferring superstructure loads into the ground in weaker soil. They diminish settlement of infrastructure and augment soil-bearing capacity. This paper emphases pile-driving effect on an existing adjacent cylindrical semi-tapered pile. Driving a three-dimensional fruitfully accomplished by combining arbitrary Lagrangian–Eulerian (ALE) adaptive mesh e...

The meniscus plays a vital role in knee biomechanics, and its physical absence or functional incompetence (e.g., irreparable root or radial tear) leads to unacceptably high rates of joint degeneration in affected populations. Meniscal allograft transplantation has been used successfully to treat patients with postmeniscectomy syndrome, and there is early laboratory and radiographic evidence hin...

This study compared the femoral stem revision and loosening rates in primary total hip arthroplasty between 2 different approaches and stem designs. Recent reports comparing the direct anterior approach with either the posterior or lateral approach showed that patients undergoing the direct anterior approach have less pain and an accelerated functional recovery in the early postoperative period...

In this paper, a non-isothermal flow of a micropolar fluid in a thin pipe with circular cross-section is considered. The fluid in the pipe is cooled by the exterior medium and the heat exchange on the lateral part of the boundary is described by Newton’s cooling condition. Assuming that the hydrodynamic part of the system is provided, we seek for the micropolar effects on the heat flow using th...
