Between the three different implant designs, the cartilage reverse engineered design yielded the largest contact areas and lowest contact stresses, but was still unable to reproduce the contact mechanics of the native joint.
The contact model reproduced the state of contact between the bone and implant in the experimental model; theoretically, displacements under loading conditions should show values equivalent to those in the experimental model.
It is very challenging to reproduce such contact conditions on pin-on-disc tribometers.
Experimental tests were conducted to reproduce the contact conditions in spiral strands undergoing free bending deformations and submitted to corrosion.
It is suggested that while the flow theory reproduces the contact response in recrystallized polycrystals, deformation plasticity may be more relevant in predicting hardness values in work-hardened metals.
This paper presents a novel technique for the real time estimation of the wheel-rail contact forces based on an estimator design model that takes into account the nonlinearities of the interaction by means of a fitting model functional to reproduce the contact mechanics in a wide range of slip and to be easily integrated in a complete model based estimator for railway vehicle.
A distribution of surface pressures reproducing the contact law of the rigid indentor on an elastic half-space is introduced and the sandwich plate theory proposed by Dundrová, Kovarı́k and Slapák (1970) is adopted; the explicit solutions with pre-assigned surface pressures are obtained and the contact force indentation relations, before the sandwich plate is damaged, are found.
In the model of CD8+ T cell-mediated skin inflammation, which reproduces allergic contact dermatitis in human, inhibition of skin inflammation by L. casei is not due to impaired priming of hapten-specific IFNγ-producing cytolytic CD8+ effector T cells.
In the model of CD8+-T-cell-mediated skin inflammation, reproducing allergic contact dermatitis in human beings, inhibition of skin inflammation was due to decreased CD8+-effector T-cells recruitment into the skin during the elicitation (i.e., symptomatic) phase of contact hypersensitivity [ 25].
