    Notes: The cancellous bone stresses surrounding proximal femoral prostheses were investigated using the finite element method and the results correlated with clinical subsidence data for similar implant configurations. The finite element study has shown that press-fit prostheses generate significantly higher cancellous bone stresses than bonded (cemented and HA coated) prostheses. The cancellous bone stresses surrounding press-fit implants are sensitive to the coefficient of friction, with up to a 60% decrease observed when the coefficient of friction was increased from 0 to 0.4. Resecting the femoral neck generally increased the cancellous bone stresses however varying the thickness of the cement mantle had little or no effect. Good correlation was found between the finite element results and the clinically measured subsidence data. Implant configurations generating higher cancellous bone stresses were those which subsided the most. This observation suggests that it may be possible to use the initial cancellous bone stresses to predict the likelihood of migration and hence late aseptic loosening.

    Notes: Abstract The determination of numerical values for the elasticity of the myocardium is a prerequisite for any accurate analysis of the left ventricle. Such values as are normally quoted are for a modulus of elasticity for an isotropic homogeneous model. Here some current suggestions for the modulus of elasticity are collated and a further analysis for values on the assumption of an orthotropic left ventricle is presented.

    Notes: A computer program is described for the analysis of plates in extension using the equivalent plane-framework idealization. The conjugate gradient method is adopted to solve the resulting large number of simultaneous equations. Performance figures are quoted for the program when used on an ICL KDF9 machine with a restriction of 18K on the available core store. The method is generally shown to provide a satisfactory solution to a heavy computational task and thus permits the solution of very large structural systems on a small computer.

    Notes: A finite difference solution of a system of first-order partial differential equations, using a central difference scheme, is presented. The equations describe the linear elastic behaviour of a thick rectangular plate resting on an elastic foundation and carrying an arbitrary transverse load. The lateral edges of the plate are unstressed. The main deflections and stresses predicted by the method for a particular case are given, together for purposes of comparison, with results from a finite element analysis.

    Notes: A Fourier series solution is presented for a system of first-order partial differential equations which describe the linear elastic behaviour of a thick rectangular plate resting on an elastic foundation and carrying an arbitrary transverse load. The lateral edges of the plate are unstressed. A central step in the method for solving the system of equations is to combine a complementary function with a particular solution of the system in order to satisfy the boundary conditions. The complementary function is the sum of two series. The terms of the first series are products of a Fourier term in one space variable with the solution of an eigenvalue problem in the other space variable. The second series is similar and comes from reversing the roles of the space variables.

    Notes: A model has been established to examine the effects of mechanically loading bone on the ionic distribution in osteocytes. The ionic concentrations are determined from the fluorescence of specific ionic indicators SPFI, PBFI, and SPQ. A deformation was induced in the calvariae of neonatal rats which were used as the experimental subjects. The ionic distribution was not uniform across the calvarial specimen, and with the aid of finite element stress analysis we examined the distribution of strain energy density within the specimen. A similarity between the pattern of distribution of strain energy density and the potassium and sodium ions was observed, whereas this was not the case with chloride ions. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
