1. 1. Synchrotron X-ray Tomography Study of Bone-implant Integration

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

   Author : Ornella Lohéac; [2021]
   Keywords : Bone-implant; Digital volume correlation; Micro-computed tomography; PEEK; Synchrotron; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Implant loosening is a recurring problem in the field of orthopedics, typically resulting in a physical and financial burden for the patient. Proper integration of orthopedic implants within host bones is a fundamental requirement for the successful function and limited risk of failure of implants which, in-vivo, must support various loading conditions.

3. 2. Synchrotron tomography of pressboard during in-situ compression loading : Construction of compression rig, image acquisition procedure and methods for image processing

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad mekanik

   Author : Åsa Jonsson; Grim Skarsgård; [2015]
   Keywords : Pressboard; Synchrotron X-ray micro Computed Tomography; stress relaxation;

   Abstract : Pressboard, a high density cellulose-based material used for insulation in high voltage power transformers, exhibits stress relaxation during compressive loading. Investigating the micro-mechanical mechanisms responsible for the relaxation can lead to modifications of the production process to control the behaviour of the material. READ MORE
