    • Biaxial Investigation Of Periosteal Mechanics 

      Aruwajoye, Olumide O. (Biomedical Engineering, 2009-09-16)
      Limb lengthening procedures are used commonly to correct limb length discrepancies. Current methods in limb lengthening require a distraction of 1 mm per day using an external fixation device. Although the underlying ...

    • Biaxial Mechanical Characterization Of Porcine Periosteum 

      Warren, Phillip Daniel (Biomedical Engineering, 2008-08-08)
      Periosteum is multipotent tissue responsible for cortical bone deposition and is important in fracture repair. Research indicates the periosteum is mediated by similar mechanical signals to those that mediate bone growth ...
