Artificial implants have been commonly used to replace or fix damaged tissue in orthopedics. However, due to the inter-individual differences and the complexities of anatomical structures and load conditions, traditional implants cannot meet the clinical requirements. In recent years, questions relating to customized artificial implants have been getting more and more attention from the research community. Challenges to implementing precision design and evaluation arise not only from the design need of considering bionic structures, kinematical function, mechanical performances, and biological functional similarity but also from the multiscale comprehensive evaluation, the latter involves biomechanics and biotribology of musculoskeletal systems from macro musculoskeletal multibody dynamics to micromechanics of porous structures. Established analysis technologies such as musculoskeletal multibody dynamics modeling and neuromusculoskeletal modeling are being well developed and evolved through combining/coupling with finite element analyses and, more recently, by novel artificial intelligence approaches.
Throughout the twentieth century, Chinese writers have confronted the problem of creating a new literary tradition that both maintains the culturally unique aspects of a rich heritage and succeeds in promoting a new modernity. In the first book-length treatment of the topic, Wendy Larson examines the contradictory forms of authority at work in the autobiographical texts of modern Chinese writers and scholars and the way these conflicts helped to shape and determine the manner in which writers viewed themselves, their texts, and their work. Larson focuses on the most famous writers associated with the May Fourth Movement, a group most active in the 1920s and 1930s, and their fundamental ambiv...

Intelligent Medical Technologies and Biomedical Engineering: Tools and Applications helps young researchers and developers understand the basics of the field while highlighting the various developments over the last several years. Broad in scope and comprehensive in depth, this volume serves as a base text for any project or work into the domain of medical diagnosis or other areas of medical engineering.
Grain size is recognized as a key microstructural factor affecting mechanical and, to some extent, physical properties of metals and metallic materials. For this reason, all the means designed to control and modify the grain size are considered a proper way to design and tailor metallic materials with desired properties. In this sense, microstructure refinement through severe plastic deformation (SPD) techniques can be considered a key method for this purpose. A typical SPD process is currently defined as any method of metal forming under extensive hydrostatic pressure intended to impose a very high strain on a bulk solid without involving any significant change in the overall dimensions and...
