Goldmann Applanation Tonometry (GAT) is the recognised ‘Gold Standard’ tonometer. However this status is refuted by eminent authors. These contradictory views have driven the initial goal to assess, from first principles, the evolution of GAT and to experimentally evaluate its utility and corrections. Subsequently, an important caveat became the evaluation of Corneal Hysteresis and Corneal Resistance Factor. Chapter 1.

Abstract (sommario):
Due to recent advances in aquatic research, technology, and facilities, many modes of aquatic therapy now exist. These aquatic modes assist individuals (e.g., osteoarthritis patients) in the performance of activities that may be too difficult to complete on land. However, the biomechanical requirements of each aquatic therapy mode may elicit different physiological and functional responses. Therefore, the purpose of this thesis was to: (a) provide a review of the physiological and biomechanical differences between aquatic and land based exercises, and (b) examine the acute effects of underwat

Load distributions among carpal bones, forces on ligaments and joints were examined by using three-dimensional model. Wrist injuries and required surgical operations were examined with the model. The most crucial point of the study was that, using three-dimensional model of the wrist, hand surgeons would be able to predict results of surgical operation. Surgery planning may be done and mechanical results may be Evaluated on the wrist model.

Degeneration and age affect the biomechanics of the intervertebral disc, by reducing its stiffness, flexibility and shock absorption capacities against daily movement and spinal load.

However, traditional testing does not give a view of the load and deformation states of the disc components: nucleus pulposus, annulus f

Abstract (sommario):
Mathematical models of human movement have the potential to provide information about how and why humans move the way they do. However, due to the existing gap between the current simple and complex models of running, it is unclear as to the level of complexity required to model normal distance running. Therefore, the aim of this PhD was to develop an “appropriately complex” biomechanical model of running. The first investigation aimed to assess the validity of the fundamental assumption of the spring mass model, the simplest model of running. The model assumes that during running the human bo
