Addressing mental health challenges in college students: A biomechanical approach to mitigating stress and cognitive load through physical intervention strategies

The main objective of this investigation is to find out how biomechanical actions, such as physical activity programs, balanced adjustments, and mindfulness-based posture correction, are successful at reducing Cognitive Load (CL) and levels of stress among college students. Mechanical adjustments decreased stress, physical activity reduced CL, and mindfulness-based posture correction improved Mental Health (MH), according to a long-term experiment with 28 students from four distinct educational fields. Investigators examined students’ stress, CL, and BH levels monthly. The outcome results dealt with all three predictions. A student’s Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) score dropped from 24.66 to 18.10 (mean difference = 6.56, t = 4.82, p = 0.0001) after experiencing practical changes, demonstrating a significant decrease in stress levels. Following the exercise support, CL, as determined by the NASA Task Load Index (NASA-TLX), dropped from 65.38 to 54.23 (mean difference = 11.15, t = 5.29, p = 0.00005). Ratings for BH increased significantly after exercising mindfulness-based posture correction (from 78.63 to 85.13; mean difference = −6.50, t = −4.92, p = 0.00007). The median variation in PF (VO2 Max) went from 40.46 to 45.11 (t = −3.78, p = 0.0012), and the difference in value was −4.65.

Estimating elbow loading conditions through the motion behaviors of subchondral bone density during joint movements

Evaluating complicated stress across the elbow under joint motion remains difficult. Here, we aimed to evaluate the distribution of the subchondral bone density in the normal elbow bones and further characterize their spatial relationships during elbow motion to estimate the loading stress across the articular surface using three-dimensional computed tomography bone models. The normal elbow joint exhibited a consistent distribution pattern of subchondral bone density. High-density regions were distributed in the capitellum and posterior humeral trochlea, sagittal ridge of the ulnar trochlear notch and ulnar-volar side of the radial head. Motion analyses revealed that the high-density regions proximate with elbow flexion with forearm pronation in the radiocapitellar joint and in the fully extended position in the ulnohumeral joint. This reasonably reflects the stress acting on the joint surface under actual loading conditions. These findings suggest that daily activities involving lifting or carrying objects in these positions are stress-prone activities.

Quantifying sandstone crack extension and expansion via deep learning methods

This study investigates the damage evolution of sandstone under loading stresses, which can lead to irreversible plastic deformation and reduced project stability service life. To achieve this objective, we identify and quantify the emergence and expansion process of sandstone cracks using deep learning methods. Specifically, our approach employs a crack segmentation model enhanced by an attention mechanism, achieving a remarkable effective crack detection MIoU of 93.38. Through the application of connectivity domain analysis, skeleton extraction, and orthogonal projection techniques, we extract crucial crack parameters, which are subsequently formulated into equations to determine their actual dimensions. These evolving parameter variations serve as the foundation for predicting the sandstone's entire damage progression, encompassing both microscopic crack growth and eventual catastrophic failure preceding macroscopic manifestation of damage. Validation of our method through uniaxial compression tests on sandstone specimens confirm its efficacy and practical applicability. In conclusion, this study presents a novel framework for quantifying sandstone crack evolution, providing invaluable insights into the intricate mechanisms governing damage fracture progression in rocks.

Multi-axial fatigue of high-strength concrete: Model-enabled interpretation of punch-through shear test response

This paper aims to fill the gap in multi-axial fatigue characterization of concrete by presenting a comprehensive numerical analysis of data from the punch-through shear test (PTST), which allows control over combined shear and compression loads in the tested ligament. To accurately reproduce the degradation process in this multi-axial configuration, a material model must capture two key effects: (i) dissipative behavior at the inter-aggregate level during subcritical pulsating loading and (ii) fatigue-induced tri-axial stress redistribution in the test ligament. The recently published MS1 model by the authors effectively incorporates these features, thereby enabling a deeper interpretation of the experimental data. The former effect is seamlessly integrated into the model using the Lemaitre-type fatigue hypothesis, facilitating the direct derivation of general evolution equations. The latter effect is efficiently represented through the microplane homogenization framework. The model’s predictions for PTST response under monotonic shear loading with varying levels of radial confinement align well with experimental results. Similarly, the simulated fatigue response accurately reproduces the experimentally observed S-N (Wöhler) curves. Further studies demonstrate the model’s ability to predict the effect of fatigue loading sequence. A thermodynamically-based formulation provides an energetic interpretation of this effect, offering a quantitative breakdown of energy dissipation attributed to individual dissipative mechanisms over the lifetime of the material. The studies show that damage-induced dissipation remains almost constant regardless of different fatigue loading histories.

Viscoelastic study of cement and emulsified asphalt mortar under temperature variations based on a novel variable-order fractional Maxwell model

Cement and emulsified asphalt (CA) mortar is a critical viscoelastic component of ballastless track systems, exhibiting pronounced temperature sensitivity. However, accurately predicting the mechanical responses of CA mortar due to temperature fluctuations remains a challenge. This work proposes a novel variable-order fractional Maxwell (VOFM) model to investigate the viscoelastic properties of CA mortar under temperature variations. The VOFM model is numerically solved using a time-varying coefficient ladder (TVL) model. The VOFM model is validated by comparing with both numerical integration methods and experimental data. The basic properties of the VOFM model, the viscoelastic responses of CA mortar under varying temperatures and alternating stress are systematically investigated. The results show that the mechanical properties of VOFM model agree with the FM model when time-dependent parameters of the VOFM model correspond to that of the FM model. Moreover, high temperatures have a promoting effect on the deformation of CA mortar under both alternating and constant stress conditions. The peak amplitude of CA mortar strain under practical varying temperature and stress loading correlates with the trend of temperature changes.

Differences in Physical Demands and Player’s Individual Performance Between Winning and Losing Quarters on U-18 Basketball Players During Competition

Background: This study examines how physical demands and individual performance influence quarter results in under-18 basketball players during a six-day basketball tournament. Methods: Twelve male players from an elite Spanish team were tracked using inertial microsensors to monitor external load variables (player load, steps, and dynamic stress load). Individual performance was assessed using the performance index rating (PIR). Results: The results showed significant differences in physical demands between quarters. Also, player load (F = 3.75, p = 0.012) and steps (F = 5.29, p = 0.001) were higher in the first quarter and decreased over time. Winning quarters had significantly higher physical demands compared to losing quarters (PL: F = 27.13, p < 0.001; steps: F = 16.70, p < 0.001; DSL: F = 9.50, p < 0.001). On the contrary, PIR did not show significant differences between winning and losing quarters (F = 2.15, p = 0.143), but tended to be higher in winning quarters. Conclusions: These results suggest that physical demands are stronger predictors of quarter results than individual performance scores, indicating that such parameters should be closely monitored by sport scientists and coaches since they can play a crucial role in team success.

Digital rock modeling of deformed multi-scale media in deep hydrocarbon reservoirs based on in-situ stress-loading CT imaging and U-Net deep learning

Deep and ultra-deep hydrocarbon reservoirs are regarded as an attractive target for onshore oil and gas exploration and development in China. The multi-scale fractures are widely distributed in this type of reservoir. The fluid-solid coupling effect is strong, which can greatly affect the fluid flow, resulting in a low hydrocarbon recovery with the average value less than 15%. To explore the underlying flow dynamics during efficient development of deep and ultra-deep hydrocarbon reservoirs, it is of great importance to characterize the multi-scale fracture-pore structure evolution of rock affected by strong geo-stress field variation. To tackle the above issues, an actual rock drilled from a typical ultra-deep reservoir in Tarim Basin are selected to conduct in-situ stress-loading computed tomography (CT) scanning experiments, and the CT gray images of rock microstructure under different dynamic loading conditions are obtained. A fully convolutional neural network (U-Net) deep learning segmentation algorithm is introduced to accurately distinguish the rock skeleton, pore space and fractures in deep rock. The three-dimensional (3-D) digital rock model of deformed multi-scale fracture-porous media under different dynamic loading conditions is ultimately established to investigate the evolution of fracture morphology and deep rock microstructure as the in-situ stress is gradually loaded. It indicates that, the U-Net deep learning semantic segmentation algorithm can accurately segment CT images of deep rocks, and the established 3D digital rock model of fractured porous media can accurately represent the pore-throat distribution, fracture morphology, and pore-scale topological connectivity. At the initial stage of stress loading, there are few micro-fractures inside the rock, and the fracture connectivity is poor. Due to effect of rock compaction, the average pore throat radius increases while pore throat ratio, coordination number and tortuosity greatly decrease. As the effective stress is gradually loaded, the micro-fractures begin to propagate, leading to stronger heterogeneity of micro-fractures’ distribution and better topological connectivity, and both the coordination number and tortuosity gradually increase. After the deep rock is fractured, micro-fractures run through a fracture network and all the above topological parameters increase greatly.

Quantifying Trunk Impact Dynamics and Workload with Inertial Sensors in Goalball Players

The aim of this study was to quantify trunk impact dynamics in goalball players using inertial sensors and evaluate the goalball players’ workloads, focusing on changes between the first and second halves of a match to enhance understanding of the demands experienced throughout the game. Utilizing inertial technology, trunk impacts during goalball gameplay were analyzed to provide a holistic insight into how these impacts influence athletes’ dynamic stress loads, which refers to the physical demands placed on the body during dynamic movements. Six goalball players were recruited to wear an accelerometer during a whole goalball game to quantify trunk impacts. The results showed a higher number of total impacts and a higher number of impacts at higher levels during the first half, compared to a higher percentage of impacts at a low impact level in the second half. These results suggest that the intensity of gameplay is related to the number of impacts sustained, with players experiencing significantly more impacts, particularly at very low, low, and very high impact levels, in the first half compared to the second half. This decline in impacts aligns with the reduction in game intensity as the match progressed, as indicated by a lower heart rate and a trend towards a lower dynamic stress load in the second half. Future research could explore targeted training interventions aimed at optimizing workload and performance in goalball players.

Study on the effect of variable laser power on residual stress distribution in laser directed energy deposition of Ti6Al4V

In the laser directed energy deposition (LDED) process, cyclic thermal stress loading induces significant temperature variations on the surface and subsurface of the workpiece during repeated heating, leading to the formation of residual tensile stress during cooling. This adversely affects the mechanical properties of the parts, causing deformation and defects. In this study, a heat transfer model and a three-dimensional stress model were established based on finite element analysis. A variable laser power (VLP) deposition strategy was proposed to dynamically simulate the temperature and stress fields of Ti6Al4V titanium alloy under different deposition strategies. The model was validated by collecting substrate temperature variations using thermocouples and measuring residual stress with an X-ray diffractometer (XRD). Experimental results showed that the temperature error between the simulation and the experiment ranged from 6.25 % to 10.12 %, with an average stress simulation error of 6.92 %. Among the four strategies, the samples using the VLP strategy showed a reduction in the average substrate temperature by 12.68 % to 15.08 % compared to the other three strategies. The maximum principal stress in the layer was reduced by 7.8 % to 32.14 %, and the residual stress distribution was more uniform in all directions. The microstructure of the deposition layer further indicated that the VLP strategy improves residual stress distribution and leading to better deposition quality.

Triangular state stress and deformation analysis of deformable tracked wheel

The Variable Morphology Wheel-Track Mechanism (VMWTM) is an innovative mobile platform design designed to overcome the limitations of traditional track and wheel designs in different terrains and mission requirements. Based on the importance of the crawler wheel in the tracked vehicle, the vehicle transmission shaft transmits the power and torque of the power source to the crawler chassis, so the overall working performance of the vehicle depends to a certain extent on the performance of the crawler wheel. In-depth and detailed research on the structure of the track wheel module is an important issue in the current vehicle design and manufacturing work. Based on the relevant theories and technologies of the finite element method, this paper conducts in-depth analysis and design. Taking the whole crawler wheel mechanism and the key components as the analysis object, the basic research method is the finite element method. The working principle of the crawler wheel is analyzed, and the load calculation, stress characteristics and structural strength of the key components of the triangular crawler wheel module are deeply explored according to the technical requirements and actual working conditions.

Stress relaxation aging of 7050 aluminum alloy under elastic and plastic loadings: A perspective from the geometrically necessary dislocations

Aerospace integral panels with large curvature often experience not only elastic loading but also plastic loading during creep age forming. However, the stress relaxation aging behaviors and mechanisms under loading stresses ranging from elastic to plastic regions, especially from the perspective of geometrically necessary dislocations (GNDs), have not been fully explored. The stress relaxation aging (SRA) behavior of 7050 aluminum alloy under elastic (200/250/300 MPa) and plastic loadings (350/400 MPa) are studied by uniaxial SRA, hardness and tensile tests, and corresponding mechanisms are clarified by Electron Back Scatter Diffraction (EBSD) tests and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observations. Regardless of the loading stress, the stress relaxation of 7050 alloy shows a typical two-stage behavior (rapid stress reduction and stable stress relaxation rate). The second stage of stress relaxation under elastic loading shows an abnormal stress rebound, while the stress continuously decreases under plastic loading, and hardness and yield strength at 350 MPa are lower than that at 200 MPa during SRA. These results are attributed to strong dislocation pinning from small and dense precipitates at elastic loading and dislocations shearing large and sparse precipitates at plastic loading, respectively. Furthermore, both the stress reduction and its ratio increase with the increase of initial stress. GNDs contribute to the formation of low-angle grain boundaries (LAGBs) and accumulate at the LAGBs intersection to coordinate grain orientation for creep deformation. Compared to elastic loading, plastic loading promotes global growth of intragranular precipitates by elastic stress field and local heterogeneous nucleation and coarsening of precipitates at subgrain boundaries by more GNDs.

Polylactide-Based Polymer Composites with Rice Husk Filler

In this work, composites made of polylactide (PLA) and filled with alkali-pretreated rice husk (RH) were investigated. Composites containing 20, 30, and 40 wt.% of RH were synthesized. It was shown that alkaline treatment, along with the change in crystal lattice, led to an increase in the content of non-crystalline parts and the volume of intercrystalline spaces, and the internal surface of the cellulose fiber increased, which resulted in improved adhesion of the fiber with the matrix. The addition of rice husk to the PLA matrix led to an increase in the flexural modulus, which increased to 2881 MPa for the PLA/RH (80/20 wt.%) and 3034 MPa for the PLA/RH (70/30 wt.%) composites and lowered the peak load stress by approximately 43% for the composite with 20 wt.% RH and 56% for the composite with 30 wt.% RH. The reduction in the degree of PLA crystallinity allows macromolecules to move more freely in amorphous regions, which has a positive effect on increasing the flexibility of materials in general. The optimal formulation is a composite consisting of 30% RH and 70% PLA matrix.

Analysis of the tooth-root stress of external spur gears with high effective contact ratio

For spur gears with contact ratio close to 2, the extension of the contact interval resulting from loaded tooth deflections and local contact deformations may result in an effective contact ratio above 2. In these cases, the load is transmitted by at least two tooth-pairs, the maximum load and tooth-root stress decrease, and therefore the calculation methods of the gear rating Standards ISO and AGMA provide very conservative results. In this work, two models are applied to the calculation of the tooth-root stress of load-induced high contact ratio external gears: (i) an analytic model of load sharing, based on the minimum energy method, and (ii) a finite element model, which validates the results obtained from the previous model. Obtained values of the stress are compared with those provided by ISO and AGMA rating methods, which do not account for the stress reduction due to the higher contact ratio. A new modification coefficient is proposed to correct these conservative values, which allows the AGMA and ISO geometry factors to remain as no load-dependent factors and keep their actual calculation methods and significance.

Finite element analysis of biomechanical investigation on diverse internal fixation techniques in oblique lumbar interbody fusion

BackgroundTo establish a three-dimensional finite element model of the lumbar spine and investigate the impact of different fixation techniques on the biomechanical characteristics of oblique lumbar interbody fusion (OLIF).MethodsThe study aimed to establish and validate a comprehensive three-dimensional model of the lower lumbar spine (L3-S1) using the finite element method. L4-L5 was selected as the surgical segment, and four distinct OLIF surgical models were constructed: Stand-alone (SA), unilateral cortical bone trajectory screw (UCBT), bilateral cortical bone trajectory screw (BCBT), and bilateral pedicle screw (BPS). The models were underwent a pure moment of 10N·m to simulate lumbar extension, flexion, left bending, right bending, left and right rotation movements. Subsequently, the range of motion (ROM), cage stress, and fixation stress were calculated.ResultsIn the L3-L5 segment, the BCBT group showed the most limited range of motion (ROM) under exercise load, indicating superior stability within this group. The ROM and cage stress values were found to be highest in the SA group. In contrast, the cage and internal fixation stress in the BPS group were observed to be lowest (9.91 ~ 53.83MPa, 44.93 ~ 84.85 MPa). With the exception of right bending and right rotation, the UCBT group demonstrated higher levels of internal fixation stress (102.20 ~ 164.62 MPa).ConclusionsThe study found that OLIF-assisted internal fixation improved segmental stability and reduced cage stress. The BPS group had advantages over the CBT group in preventing endplate damage and reducing the risk of cage subsidence. However, BCBT group has distinct merits in maintaining surgical segment stability, distributing stress load on the spinal motor unit, and reducing the likelihood of adjacent segment degeneration (ASD).

Selection of parental pairs when obtaining F1 hybrids of white cabbage with resistance to the tip burn of the inner leaves

Relevance. During the formation of cabbage heads, under certain conditions, white cabbage is damaged by a burn of the top of the inner leaves of the head, which abroad received the stable name “tip burn”. This disorder is interpreted as a physiological or non-infectious disease, the cause of which is a violation of calcium intake. The disease manifests itself inside the cabbage head, resulting from the interaction of environmental stress factors and the predisposed genotype. The most effective way to combat this disorder is to develop highly tolerant hybrids. This is especially true for the south of Russia, where the stress load on plants is maximum.Purpose of the study – to develop a principle for selecting parental pairs for developing hybrids that are resistant to the tip burn of the inner leaves of a cabbage head, and to identify promising hybrids. Materials and methods. In 2021-2022 in FSBSI "Federal Scientific Rice Centre", in the department of vegetable growing, 45 hybrid combinations obtained on the basis of 10 inbred lines were assessed under field conditions for the trait "burn damage to the inner leaves of the cabbage head." An analysis of the combining ability of lines according to Griffin, and an analysis of the inheritance of the trait according to Heiman were carried out. In 2023, a competitive test of promising hybrids was carried out.Results. In both years of research, 5 lines had negatively stable TCA for burn damage: Ten4270, Yas25p, Bs1f, Agr 82, 270Hn111. SCA of lines is more subject to changes from year to year. The effects of SCA in hybrids due to dominance, epistasis and overdominance in individual combinations significantly influence the manifestation of the trait in the direction of decrease or increase. The principle of selecting parental pairs to develop stable hybrids is based on a combination of lines with a negative SCA value; in some cases, it is permissible to include one line with an average SCA and low SCA. Analysis of genetic parameters according to Heiman confirms the prevalence of non-additive inheritance of the lesion; in unstable forms, the disorder is controlled by dominant polygenes and is highly heritable.

Syntax, stress and cognitive load, or on syntactic processing in simultaneous interpreting

Abstract This corpus-based study examines the effect of syntactic complexity in the source language on simultaneous interpreters’ cognitive load and stress. Previous studies show contrasting results regarding the source text syntax and cognitive load in interpreting, while the link between syntactic complexity and interpreters’ stress remains unexplored. Our research aims to fill this gap by measuring cognitive load through filled and silent pauses, and stress through fundamental frequency. We evaluated syntactic complexity by calculating dependency distance, i.e., the number of words between syntactically dependent elements. We used PINC, the Polish Interpreting Corpus (Chmiel et al. 2022), as our dataset. We found that higher syntactic complexity in the source text increases stress and cognitive load among interpreters. Additionally, when interpreters produce complex syntax themselves, their stress increases. The study provides empirical evidence for simplification in interpreting and shows that syntactic complexity in interpreters’ own output does not necessarily lead to increased cognitive load.

Effects of morroniside isolated from Cornus officinalis fruits on functional gastrointestinal disorders and gastric ulcer in mice

The dried fruits of Cornus officinalis (Cornaceae) are used in Kampo medicine (e.g. Hachimigan and Goshajinkigan) to treat senile osteoporosis, diabetes, gastric atony, frequent urination, and diarrhea/constipation associated with aging. The present study investigated the effects of a C. officinalis fruit extract and morroniside, an iridoid compound from isolated these fruits, on the reduction in gastric emptying small intestinal motility caused by 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) and 1-(3-chlorophenyl) biguanide (5-HT3 receptor agonist), and gastric ulcers induced by 150 or 75 mM HCl/90 % EtOH (HCl-EtOH) and/or 5-HT in mice. C. officinalis extract (500 mg/kg) and morroniside (20 and 50 mg/kg) suppressed the reduction in gastric emptying induced by 5-HT- and 5-HT3 agonist. C. officinalis extract, morroniside and 5-HT3 receptor antagonist (ramosetron) attenuated 5-HT-induced diarrhea. Furthermore, morroniside (20 and 50 mg/kg) prevented EtOH/HCl-induced gastric ulcers and those caused by 5-HT. Morroniside (20 and 50 mg/kg) attenuated elevations in the plasma levels of corticosterone, corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF), and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) in 75 mM HCl/90 % EtOH- and 5-HT-treated mice. The results obtained herein suggest the potential of morroniside as an effective treatment for irritable bowel syndrome, such as diarrhea and functional dyspepsia (reductions in gastric emptying and small intestinal motility), caused by 5-HT. The present study suggests a role for morroniside in the regulation of elevations in CRF, ACTH, and corticosterone levels through hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis activity induced by stress loading, such as a 5-HT treatment and/or HCl/EtOH stimulation.

Accelerated failure behavior of Zr702 in boiling nitric acid solutions under constant stress loading

The constant stress tensile deformation behavior of commercial Zr702, used in spent fuel reprocessing industry, was investigated in 108 °C/200 MPa nitric acid solutions and non-corrosive silicone oil. Microscopic characterization of surface as well as cross-section of deformed Zr702 was carried out. In silicone oil, there were minimal cracks observed on the sample's surface. However, a significant number of cracks appeared on the sample's surface in nitric acid solutions. In nitric acid solutions, at the interface between the oxide layer and the matrix, cracks occurred, extended, the oxide film fractured, cracks further expanded, and the stress concentration at the cracks tip led to the formation of new cracks. This cyclic process resulted in the strength of the material decreasing and accelerated failure.

КРАЙОВІ ЕФЕКТИ В БАЛКАХ ІЗ КОМПОЗИТІВ

Beams made of composites are widely used in aircraft structures, various machines and mechanisms. The experience of operation and repair of such objects shows that when designing beams and spars, one must take into account such effects as the influence of thermal stresses and the additional contribution of Poisson's coefficients to the stressed state of beam elements both in the length direction and along the width beam elements. Scientific studies devoted to the assessment of the stress-strain state of load-bearing structures made of composites demonstrate the conclusions that the effects of thermal expansion (contraction) of heterogeneous connected elements and the influence of Poisson's ratios give significant increases in stress. The value of these increases can be up to dozens of percents of the base load (that is, without taking these effects into account).The paper proposes an engineering mathematical model that allows estimating the value of normal and shear stresses from thermal loading and Poisson stresses. An analysis of the distribution of these stresses along the length and width of the beam elements was carried out.When using the structural-technological solution of beams with sub-shoulders, the proposed method allows you to reasonably choose adhesive or binder for reliable connection of the cap with sub-shoulder, as well as more correctly justify the geometric dimensions of the beam elements. Also, this technique can be used to develop new structural and technological solutions for beams and other load-bearing elements (ribs, walls, webs, doublers, overlapping joints of composite parts).Another applied direction of using the developed methodology can be considered the development and optimization of existing technological processes for the production of parts and units of composites, in which the so-called hot polymerization of the binder (at elevated temperatures) is used. The method makes it possible to estimate the level of thermal stresses that occur during the manufacture of the unit.In general, the proposed technique makes it possible to understand the principles of additional stresses occurrence, to estimate their absolute values, and to increase the accuracy of estimating the stress-strain state of beam elements.

Mechanical analysis of modified femoral neck system in the treatment of osteoporotic femoral neck fractures

BackgroundDespite the explicit biomechanical advantages associated with FNS, it is currently inconclusive, based on the existing literature, whether Femoral Neck System (FNS) outperforms Cannulated cancellous screws (CSS) in all aspects. Due to variances in bone morphology and bone density between the elderly and young cohorts, additional research is warranted to ascertain whether the benefits of FNS remain applicable to elderly osteoporosis patients. This study aimed to investigate the biomechanical properties of FNS in osteoporotic femoral neck fractures and propose optimization strategies including additional anti-rotation screw.MethodsThe Pauwels type III femoral neck fracture models were reconstructed using finite element numerical techniques. The CSS, FNS, and modified FNS (M-FNS) models were created based on features and parameterization. The various internal fixations were individually assembled with the assigned normal and osteoporotic models. In the static analysis mode, uniform stress loads were imposed on all models. The deformation and stress variations of the femur and internal fixation models were recorded. Simultaneously, descriptions of shear stress and strain energy were also incorporated into the figures.ResultsFollowing bone mass reduction, deformations in CSS, FNS, and M-FNS increased by 47%, 52%, and 40%, respectively. The equivalent stress increments for CSS, FNS, and M-FNS were 3%, 43%, 17%, respectively. Meanwhile, variations in strain energy and shear stress were observed. The strain energy increments for CSS, FNS, and M-FNS were 4%, 76%, and 5%, respectively. The shear stress increments for CSS, FNS, and M-FNS were 4%, 65% and 44%, respectively. Within the osteoporotic model, M-FNS demonstrated the lowest total displacement, shear stress, and strain energy.ConclusionModified FNS showed better stability in the osteoporotic model (OM). Using FNS alone may not exhibit immediate shear resistance advantages in OM. Concurrently, the addition of one anti-rotation screw can be regarded as a potential optimization choice, ensuring a harmonious alignment with the structural characteristics of FNS.
