Two different posterior-stabilized mobile-bearing TKA designs: navigator evaluation of intraoperative kinematic differences
2020
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare two types of posterior-stabilized (PS) mobile-bearing (MB) total knee arthroplasties (TKAs). The hypothesis was that no major differences were going to be found among the two TKA designs. Methods: Two cohorts of patients who were divided according to implant design (Cohort A, new design gradually reducing radius PS MB TKA; Cohort B, traditional dual-radius PS MB TKA) were analyzed by means of intraoperative navigation. All operations were guided by a non-image-based navigation system that recorded relative femoral and tibial positions in native and implanted knees during the following kinematic tests: passive range of motion (PROM), varus–va…
Anterior dislocation in a total knee arthroplasty: A case report and literature review.
2015
Dislocations of a total knee arthroplasty (TKA) are an uncommon injury and only few cases of anterior dislocations have been reported. We report a rare case of anterior dislocation of a 10-year-old posterior stabilized total knee arthroplasty in a 74-year-old woman. The patient was successfully treated by close reduction of the dislocation followed by immobilization in full extension with a long leg cast. Because of a high risk of neurovascular complications, a high index of suspicion for vascular injury must be maintained. For this reason, a proper diagnosis is required and immediate reduction is recommended.
Posterior Tibial Tendon Dislocation: A Case Report
2022
Abstract Isolated posterior tibial tendon dislocation is a rare condition. Diagnosis can be challenging, especially in the acute clinical setting. Predisposing factors include shallow posterior tibial tendon groove and tear of the flexor retinaculum. We report the case of traumatic subluxation of the posterior tibial tendon, illustrating imaging findings and surgical technique. Posterior tibial tendon dislocation was detected using dynamic ultrasound, while magnetic resonance was essential for a comprehensive evaluation that included underlying predisposing anatomic abnormalities and associated pathologic conditions. Conservative treatment is often unsuccessful thus surgical approach was ne…
Parietal Cortex Connectivity as a Marker of Shift in Spatial Attention Following Continuous Theta Burst Stimulation
2021
Non-invasive brain stimulation is a useful tool to probe brain function and provide therapeutic treatments in disease. When applied to the right posterior parietal cortex (PPC) of healthy participants, it is possible to temporarily shift spatial attention and mimic symptoms of spatial neglect. However, the field of brain stimulation is plagued by issues of high response variability. The aim of this study was to investigate baseline functional connectivity as a predictor of response to an inhibitory brain stimulation paradigm applied to the right PPC. In fourteen healthy adults (9 female, aged 24.8 ± 4.0 years) we applied continuous theta burst stimulation (cTBS) to suppress activity in the …

Biharmonic obstacle problem: guaranteed and computable error bounds for approximate solutions
2020
The paper is concerned with a free boundary problem generated by the biharmonic operator and an obstacle. The main goal is to deduce a fully guaranteed upper bound of the difference between the exact minimizer u and any function (approximation) from the corresponding energy class (which consists of the functions in $H^2$ satisfying the prescribed boundary conditions and the restrictions stipulated by the obstacle). For this purpose we use the duality method of the calculus of variations and general type error identities earlier derived for a wide class of convex variational problems. By this method, we define a combined primal--dual measure of error. It contains four terms of different natu…
Functional a posteriori error estimates for boundary element methods
2019
Functional error estimates are well-established tools for a posteriori error estimation and related adaptive mesh-refinement for the finite element method (FEM). The present work proposes a first functional error estimate for the boundary element method (BEM). One key feature is that the derived error estimates are independent of the BEM discretization and provide guaranteed lower and upper bounds for the unknown error. In particular, our analysis covers Galerkin BEM and the collocation method, what makes the approach of particular interest for scientific computations and engineering applications. Numerical experiments for the Laplace problem confirm the theoretical results.
Funktionaalisia a posteriori virhearvioita Uzawan tyyppisille menetelmille kokoonpuristumattomien virtausten tapauksessa
2012
Stokesin yhtälöllä voidaan kuvata nesteiden ja kaasujen liikettä, jos liike on yksiulotteista tai hidasta. Stokesin yhtälö on yksinkertaistettu ja linearisoitu versio Navier-Stokesin yhtälöistä. Tässä tutkielmassa keskitytään kokoonpuristumattomiin ja viskoottisiin nesteisiin ja kaasuihin. Kokoonpuristumattomuus tarkoittaa sitä, että nesteen tai kaasun tiheys ei muutu ajan suhteen. Viskoottisuus taas tarkoittaa sitä, että nesteillä ja kaasuilla on sisäistä kitkaa, joka muodostuu, kun aineen osaset liikkuvat toistensa suhteen. Vaikka osittaisdifferentiaaliyhtälöiden tutkimus on edennyt viime vuosisadalla hyvinkin nopeasti, on analyyttisen ratkaisun löytäminen vaikeaa tai lähes poikkeuksetta …

A posteriori error estimates for variational problems in the theory of viscous fluids
2016
The papers included in the thesis are focused on functional type a posteriori error estimates for the Stokes problem, the Stokes problem with friction type boundary conditions, the Oseen problem, and the anti-plane Bingham problem. In the summary of the thesis we consider only the Oseen problem. The papers present and justify special forms of these estimates which are suitable for the approximations generated by the Uzawa algorithm. The estimates are of two main types. Estimates of the first type use exact solutions obtained on the steps of the Uzawa algorithm. They show how errors encompassed in Uzawa approximations behave and have mainly theoretical meaning. Estimates of the second type o…
