Abstract:
Worldwide interest in how to prevent the progressive collapse for tall and large buildings under exceptional loading conditions was heightened by the collapse of the twin towers at the World Trade. The performance of steel-framed structures subjected to fire loading is heavily reliant on the interaction between structural members such as columns, slabs and beams. The implicit assumption in fire engineering design is that bolted connections are able to maintain the structural integrity for a large and tall building under fire conditions. Unfortunately, evidence from the collapse of the World Tr

Abstract:
Low back pain represents a significant financial burden to society. The major costs are associated with chronic back pain which often arises as a result of intervertebral disc degeneration. Discs lie between the vertebrae and are separated fi'om them by a cartilaginous and bony endplate. The endplate is vital for intervertebral disc health because of its role in load-transfer and disc nutrition. Consequently, changes to the endplate due to ageing or injury may adversely affect the disc and contribute to varying forms of degeneration.

Concrete filled steel tubular (CFT) columns can employ the advantages of both materials: steel and concrete. Connection to such columns, however, is problematic. This is especially so if the required connection is both bolted and moment-resisting. To address this issue, a novel blind-bolted and moment-resisting connection to CFT column has been developed. This connection uses an innovative blind-bolt, introduced in previous research at the University of Nottingham and is termed the Extended Hollobolt (EHB).

Seventy to eighty percent of the population of the Western world experiences low-back pain at one time or another. Pain can be produced as a worn disc becomes thin, narrowing the space between the vertebrae. Pieces of the damaged disc may also break off and cause irritation to the nerves signalling back pain.

Repetitive stimulation of motor nerves causes an increase in the number of packets of transmitter ("quanta") that can be released in the ensuing period. This represents a type of conditioning, in which synaptic transmission may be enhanced by prior activity. Despite many studies of this phenomenon, there have been no investigations of the quantal mechanisms underlying these events, due to the rapid changes in transmitter output and the short time periods involved. To examine this problem, a method was developed in which estimates of the quantal release parameters could be obtai

Traditionally, joints are assumed to be either pinned or fully rigid, but in reality, many behave between these two extremes giving them a semi-rigid classification. By acknowledging the semi-rigidity of nominal pin joints, steel frames can be designed as semi-continuous in which the beam bending moments are partially transmitted to the column members and the need for lateral bracing is eliminated, thus reducing material and construction costs.

1.1 Purpose 1. To determine the strength profile of the thoracolumbar endplates using indentation testing. 2. To determine the regional bone mineral density (rBMD) profile of the thoracolumbar endplates using peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT). 3. To compare the thoracolumbar endplate strength profile with the rBMD profile. 1.2 Method Indentation tests using a materials testing machine and axial pQCT were performed on the T9, T12, and L2 endplates of seven fresh-frozen human cadaver spines. A minimum of twenty-five indentations was performed in a rectangular grid (7 co

碩士<br>國立臺灣大學<br>醫學工程學研究所<br>96<br>Objectives. To investigate the effect of regional variation, nucleus material and genipin immersion on the bi-directional fluid flow resistance of healthy vertebral endplate. Summary of Background Data. The exchange of nutrients and wastes for metabolic process in the intervertebral disc can occur via fluid convection through the endplate. The fluid flow can be driven by pressure gradient between the vertebra and the intervertebral disc. However, the factors that influence the resistance of fluid flow of endplate have not been well studied yet. Methods. 125

Abstract:
Replacing a diseased disc with a tissue engineered disc has the potential to restore normal spinal biomechanics. However, recreating the interface between annulus fibrosus (AF) and vertebral bone (VB) will be necessary to facilitate proper function of the implant in vivo. This study characterizes the native bovine AF-VB interface and assesses adult human discs. The AF insertion site in humans and cows is uniquely differentiated from other soft tissue-bone interfaces, as AF collagen fibers anchor into the calcified region of vertebral endplate through a zone of hyaline cartilage and have a diff

Abstract:
In this paper, using the general purpose software ABAQUS, a three dimensional (3-D) finite element model was built to simulate semi-rigid composite connection with precast hollowcore slabs. 3D continuum elements are used for all parts of the composite connections and the contact conditions between all the components are explicitly modelled. The model also incorporates nonlinear material characteristics and non-linear geometric behaviour. A simplified method to simulate the bolted end plate connection is introduced and validated. The proposed simulation method of the longitudinal shear transmis

Abstract:
Vertebral fractures affect at least 12-20% of men and women over the age of 50, and the risk of fracture increases exponentially with age. Despite their high prevalence, the failure mechanisms leading to these fractures are not well understood. For example, clinical observations of fractured vertebra often note that one or both vertebral endplates have collapsed, but the precise involvement of the endplates in the initiation and progression of failure has not yet been defined. The mechanisms of failure may also relate to spatial variations in the density and microstructure of the porous trabec

Yes<br>Objective: To better understand the pathogenesis of DISH, identifying early or pre-DISH lesions in the spine and investigating the relationship between spinal and extra-spinal manifestations of DISH. Material: 44 skeletonized individuals with DISH from the WM Bass Donated Skeletal Collection. Methods: For each vertebra, location, extension, point of origin and appearance of vertebral outgrowths were recorded. The size of the enthesophytes at the olecranon process, patella and calcaneal tuberosity was measured with digital callipers. Results: At either end of the DISH-ankylosed
