Efficacy of Polyherbal Formulation with Regimenal Therapy in Knee Osteoarthritis at Shamim Ahmad Saeedi Unani Speciality Hospital for Waja-ul-Mufasil (Joint Pain), Funded by the Ministry of AYUSH
Abstract: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a joint disease that mostly affects cartilage. Cartilage is the slippery tissue that covers the ends of bones in a joint. Healthy cartilage allows bones to glide over each other. It also helps to absorb the shock of movement. In OA, the top layer of cartilage breaks down and wears away. This allows bones under the cartilage to rub together. The rubbing causes pain, swelling, and loss …

Custom-Made Temporomandibular Joint Replacement Design Process
Abstract: AbstractTemporomandibular joint (TMJ) is a joint of small dimensions composed by two components: condyle, the extremity of mandibular bone, and fossa, in the cranial bone. TMJ is one of the most used human joints, because it is used to talk, eat, and breathe, for example. For this reason, TMJ disorder can significantly impair patient's quality of life. So that, it becomes necessary to replace the natural joint with an alloplastic …

Mechanical Characterization of Adhesive in Lap Joint Under Tensile Load
Abstract: The present work gives details of adhesive characterization in lap joints under quasi static tensile failure load. Rivets are major threat for an aircraft structure because of high stress concentration at lesser area ease to failure and also causes drag in aerodynamic perspective. Researchers are searching for a different method to avoid the stress concentrations in lesser area. The use of adhesives instead of rivets is most feasible solution for …
