Biomechanical comparison between bashti bone plug technique and biodegradable screw for fixation of grafts in ligament surgery... The mean pull out force until failure of the graft was 496±66 N in the screw group and 503±67 N in the bone plug group (P=0.76)....
Pulse-lavage brushing followed by hydrogen peroxide-gauze packing for bone-bed preparation in cemented total hip arthroplasty : a bovine model... The mean pull-out force to separate the prosthesis from the femoral canal was significantly higher in specimens prepared with pulse-lavage brushing followed by hydrogen peroxide-soaked...
Evaluation of methods to assess push/pull forces in a construction task... When the construction task was reproduced close to the actual workplace by simulation against a fixed object using the force gauge, all exerted forces on the force gauge were significantly lower than those on the measuring frame, except for mean pull forces....
Integration of response surface methodology with genetic algorithms... The prototype system was validated using three case studies of a bonding process that involve solving the Himmelblau function, optimising the mean pull strength, and maximising both the mean pull strength and the minimum strength simul-taneously....
