    Lower body implants are designed according to the boundary conditions of gait data and tested against. However, due to diversity in cultural backgrounds, religious rituals might cause different ranges of motion and different loading patterns. Especially in the Eastern part of the world, diverse Activities of Daily Living (ADL) consist of salat, yoga rituals, and different style sitting postures. A database covering these diverse activities of the Eastern world is non-existent. This study focuses on data collection protocol and the creation of an online database of previously excluded ADL activities, targeting 200 healthy subjects via Qualisys and IMU motion capture systems, and force plates, from West and Middle East Asian populations with a special focus on the lower body joints. The current version of the database covers 50 volunteers for 13 different activities. The tasks are defined and listed in a table to create a database to search based on age, gender, BMI, type of activity, and motion capture system. The collected data is to be used for designing implants to allow these sorts of activities to be performed.

    Üst Ekstremite Hareket Kabiliyeti Değerlendirmesi için Yeni Bir Sistem Tasarımı
    (IEEE, 2020) Çizmecioğulları, Serkan; Mihçin, Şenay; Akan, Aydın; Koçak, Mertcan; Tosun, Aliye
    Üst ekstremite fonksiyon değerlendirilmesinde kullanılan yöntemlerden birisi de Eklem Hareket Açıklığı (EHA) ölçümleridir. Günümüzde bu ölçümler klinisyenin gözlemsel değerlendirmesine ve/veya gonyometrik ölçümlere dayanmaktadır. Bu ölçümlerde tekrarlanabilirlik ve güvenilirlik açısından problemler mevcuttur. Bu çalışmada üst ektremitede EHA ölçümlerinin sayısal değerlendirilmesine bağlı olarak objektif çıkarımlar yapılmasını sağlayabilecek tek kameralı bir sistem önerilmiştir. Bireylerin omuz ve dirsek fleksiyonu hareketleri kaydedilmiştir. Eş zamanlı olarak “Altın Standart” olarak OptiTrack sistemi ile de yapılan hareketler kayıt altına alınmıştır ve analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmaya 9 erkek ve 9 kadın birey katılmıştır. Hareketlerin kaydedilmesi için Kinect kamera kullanılmıştır. Kinect kamera OptiTrack sistemi ile karşılaştırılmıştır. Omuz ve dirsek fleksiyonu açıları her iki sistem ile hesaplanmıştır. Hesaplanan açılar kullanılarak her iki sistemin uyumu istatiksel olarak incelenmiştir. Bland- Altman yöntemi kullanılarak yapılan analizlerde hem erkek hem de kadın bireylerde omuz fleksiyonu ve dirsek fleksiyonu hareketleri açısından %95 güven aralığında her iki kameranın birbiriyle uyumlu olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Bu çalışma önerilen sistemin klinik tanı için güvenirliğine dair delil teşkil etmektedir.

    Optimization of Hip Implant Designs Based on Its Mechanical Behaviour
    (Springer, 2022) Göktaş, Hasan; Subaşı, Eda; Uzkut, Metin; Kara, Mustafa; Biçici, Hamit; Shirazi, Hadi; Mihçin, Şenay
    Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) is one of the best advancements in healthcare. THA is required when the hip joint causes immobility and pain. The designed hip implants vary in geometry with different geometrical parameters. The geometry plays an important role in the mechanical behavior of the hip implant. In this study, the optimum selection of hip implant under static loading was evaluated using Finite Element Modeling (FEM). Hip implants with three different stem cross-sections including. (a) elliptic, (b) oval, and (c) trapezoidal were designed using a commercial Computer-Aided Design (CAD) software package. The FEM analysis was carried out via ANSYS R2019 to assess the key mechanical parameters of the implants such as stress distribution and deformation. The results were evaluated for the best stress and strain values. The optimum design had equivalent stress (von Misses) of 258,1 MPa, equivalent strain of 0.004, with total deformation of 0.24 mm and frictional stress of 0.362 MPa producing best values for trapezoidal cross-sectioned design. The findings of this study provided an insight into the selection of appropriate hip implant design with certain geometric design parameters to produce optimum results in clinical applications. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.

    Parametric Analysis for the Design of Hip Joint Replacement Simulators
    (IEEE, 2021) Torabnia, Shams; Mihçin, Şenay; Lazoğlu, İsmail
    The simulation of wear, between the components of artificial hip joint implants, is a complicated problem that does not have a robust analytical answer yet. Many studies have been conducted to predict the wear between the femur head and the acetabular cup, as the debris generated due to the wear might produce adverse effects after the surgery. Hip joint simulators provide a means to quantify the amount of wear in preclinical settings, as an in vitro method. However, this brings some other challenges in terms of bio-fidelity. The simulators use force and range of motion data as input and provide wear information as an output. For this reason, it is important to be able to simulate the realistic conditions, by the proper transmission of force and position controlling of the components. Many studies performed on wear simulators but none of them worked on the machine parameters such as power consumption and sensitivity to external inputs in detail. In this study, we perform a sensitivity analysis of the factors affecting the forces acting on the femur head. In silico simulations were performed by changing the values of acting force, friction coefficient, and radius of femur head to understand the effects of each parameter on the frictional moment of the joint. These analyses demonstrate the importance of using correct parameters while designing simulators, which accept flexible boundary conditions. The architecture of the hip simulator was also investigated for the first time. The results are expected to pave the way for improving the bio-fidelity of the simulators in the field of biomechanics. © 2021 IEEE.

    Mechanical Investigation for the Use of Polylactic Acid in Total Hip Arthroplasty Using Fem Analysis
    (Springer, 2022) Çelik, Emre; Alemdar, Furkan; Batı, Murat; Daşdemir, Muhammed Furkan; Büyükbayraktar, Onur Alp; Chethan, K.N.; Mihçin, Şenay
    Polylactic acid (PLA) is a biodegradable non-toxic, biocompatible polymer used as a popular filament material in biomedical applications with the advance of 3D printing technologies. PLA is considered a suitable implant material due to its contribution to bone regeneration. In this study, the use of PLA in Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) as a liner material was assessed. In this regard, the PLA liner with different material combinations in THA was examined to provide evidence for its potential. The hip implant prototypewas drawn using a computer-aided design tool then transferred into a commercial finite element analysis (FEA) software. The prototypesconsisted of assemblies of PLA with titanium, chrome cobalt, stainless steels, dense NiTi shape-alloys, and Alumina-Zirconia. Simulations were run under static loading conditions. To evaluate and compare the results for the optimum design; factor of safety, total deformation and von Mises stress analysis were used. The results show that Co-Cr implemented implants produce the highest factor of safety. When Al-Zi combined with PLA, it produced least deformation and reasonable von- Mises stress values. PLA might perform best when used with Al-Zi. As a next step, experimental pre-clinical tests are planned to assess the clinical potential. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
