The development of Concrete Filled Plastic Tube (CFPT) Stub Columns, is commonly used in the areas where concrete structures interact with marine and saline environments, compared to regular columns. Several CFPT stub column samples were prepared investigate their behaviour under certain loading conditions. main objective this study was conduct an experimental investigation observe effect using...

Background. It is known that reserve zone (RZ) chondrocytes regulate the organization of physis and chondrocyte primary cilia (PC) act as mechanotransducers. Objective. To explore if physeal loading-induced strains in RZ PC can enable cells to sense whether subjected increasing or decreasing levels compression. Methods. Finite element models within were created examine developed when either 10%...

A finite element model of fractured tibia with Joshi’s External Stabilizing System (JESS) mounted on it was developed using 3D beam elements in the ANSYS software. The model was loaded in axial compression and the average axial stiffness of the model was calculated. The analytical value of axial stiffness was compared with reported experimental value to validate the finite element model. The va...
