Sentence examples for proximal ball from inspiring English sources

Palmar translation of the carpus in the unlocked proximal ball joint provides restoration of the physiological palmar tilt, while traction via the radiodorsal ligament complex adjusts the distal fragment with no need for flexing of the wrist.

After preliminary restoration of radial length, the proximal ball joint is adjusted to the radiocarpal joint space and the distal ball joint is set to the so-called centre of rotation of the wrist joint (between capitate and lunate, Fig. 6).

Although it seems likely that most of this mobility was exercised at the proximal, ball-and-socket joint (i.e., hip), some of it may have been taken up at the more distal hinge joints (i.e., knee, ankle).

(3.2) We know that (T_{2}) is a proximal contraction for closed ball (B(a_{2},r_{2})).

This four-degrees-of-freedom mechatronic finger consists of a proximal phalanx with a ball-and- socket joint to allow flection-extension and adduction-abduction movements; a medial phalanx for flection-extension movements and a distal phalanx also for flection-extension movements.

Then it is easy to see that T is a proximal contraction on the closed ball (B((1,0.1),7.5)) with (alpha=frac{1}{2}).

By hypothesis (iii), we have (x_{0}in A_{0}) such that T is a proximal contraction on the closed ball (B(x_{0},r)) and (d(x_{0},Tx_{0})+operatorname{dist}(A,B leq 1-sqrt{alpha})r).

for each (xin A_{0}), we have (Tx subseteq B_{0}); the pair ((A,B)) satisfies weak P-property; there exists (x_{0}in A_{0}) such that T is a proximal contraction on the closed ball (B(x_{0},r)) and (d(x_{0},Tx_{0})+operatorname{dist}(A,B leq 1-sqrt{alpha})r).

for each (xin A_{0}), we have (Tx in B_{0}); the pair ((A,B)) satisfies the weak P-property; there exists (x_{0}in A_{0}) such that T is a proximal contraction on the closed ball (B(x_{0},r)), that is, d(Tx,Ty leqalpha d x,y quad textit{for each }x,yin B(x_{0},r) cap A, (2.18) and (d(x_{0},Tx_{0})+operatorname{dist}(A,B leq 1-sqrt{alpha})r).

Assume that (A_{0}) is nonempty and (T: A to operatorname{CL}(B)) is a mapping satisfying the following conditions: (i) for each (xin A_{0}), we have (Tx subseteq B_{0});   (ii) the pair ((A,B)) satisfies weak P-property;   (iii) there exists (x_{0}in A_{0}) such that T is a proximal contraction on the closed ball (B(x_{0},r)) and (d(x_{0},Tx_{0})+operatorname{dist}(A,B leq 1-sqrt{alpha})r).

Intraoperatively, the tibial component, an all-polyethylene construct, and the proximal tibia were marked with tantalum balls (diameter 0.8 and 1.0 mm) for later radiostereometric analysis.
