A total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is in rare cases followed by an extra-articular fracture of distal femur. One type of fracture is a simple extra-articular fracture (A1 according to Schewring and Meggitt). It can be stabilized only by surgical treatment. Several implant types are&#x...

The aim of this work is to improve the accuracy of the algorithm by incorporating the surface tension and wetting angle effects [1]. The developed computational algorithm is tested on three benchmarks. In the first case, we solved the Poiseuille flow inside the channel formed&...

Female pelvic floor dysfunction, such as urinary incontinence, fecal urgency or pelvic organ prolapse, is very often associated with injuries of pelvic floor structures during childbirth. This trauma usually causes lifelong complications leading to poorer social or/and sexual life. The paper...

The paper deals with 1D finite element modelling of a turbine blade. The proposed finite element has only 16 degrees of freedom (DOF) and enables to achieve a complex model of turbo-machine with a relatively small DOF number, more details will be described in the article....

The aim of this work is the development of an interface between CFD software FlowPro and computing environment Matlab. FlowPro and Matlab coupled with the aid of the interface can be used to simulate complex problems such as fluid-structure interaction (FSI) problems. The fluid...

Fatigue life assessment of said bridges can be based on fully probabilistic philosophy. The loading just as response history should be taken into account and a fatigue criterion based on the amplitude interpretation should be used. Design of structures issues from the requirements ...
