TL;DR: In this article, a bottomloading multi-axial bone anchor apparatus is described, which consists of a receiver, a crown member, a bone anchor, and a retaining member, which is capable of multiaxial positioning with respect to the receiver.
Abstract: A bottom-loading multi-axial bone anchor apparatus is disclosed. The apparatus includes a receiver member, a crown member, a bone anchor and a retaining member. The receiver member defines an upper opening and a lower opening, which may form part of the same opening, a channel, and a groove. The crown member and bone anchor are loaded into the lower opening of the receiver member, and the retaining member fits around the bone anchor and into the groove in the receiver member. The bone anchor is capable of multi-axial positioning with respect to the receiver member. An elongated member is placed in the channel of the receiver member, contacting the crown member, and a compression member is applied via the upper opening. The compression member presses down on the elongated member, which presses down on the crown member and locks the bone anchor between the crown member and the retaining member.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a system for stabilizing at least a portion of the spinal column, which includes an elongate tension member and a compression member in a passage of the tension member.
Abstract: Devices, methods and systems for stabilizing at least a portion of the spinal column are provided. Anchors are engageable to vertebra and a stabilization member is engageable between the anchors. The stabilization member includes an elongate tension member and a compression member in a passage of the tension member.
TL;DR: In this paper, a compression member is disposed on a tube and a sleeve is rotatable to align the compression member with the side port to transform it from a delivery configuration to a compression configuration.
Abstract: A device, system and method for treating cardiac valve regurgitation. The device includes a compression member disposed on a tube and a sleeve rotatably disposed about the tube and the compression member. The sleeve includes a side port, and is rotatable to align the compression member with the side port to transform the compression member from a delivery configuration to a compression configuration. One method includes positioning the compression member adjacent a cardiac valve and rotating the sleeve to align the compression member with the side port to release the compression member from the delivery configuration to the compression configuration to apply a compressive force to the cardiac valve.
TL;DR: In this paper, the buckling behavior of ultra-high strength steel compression I-section columns with end restraints was analyzed using the finite element analysis (FEA) model, which showed that the major axis non-dimensional buckling strength of these columns is much higher than that calculated according to the column curve b, even higher than the curve a 0 and curve a in Eurocode 3, the American specification for structural steel buildings ANSI/AISC 360-05, and the Chinese codes for steel structures design GB50017-2003 respectively.
TL;DR: In this article, an experimental study detailed in this paper involved construction and testing of 17 rectangular concrete columns reinforced with both steel and GFRP rebars, in order to determine the effect of load eccentricity on axial capacity.
