Thesis
Mandolini, N. Bioartificial scaffolds fabrication and their use for in vitro testing of wound healing devices. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4386661

In the last decades Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) has shown its efficacy in wound healing, applying continuous or intermittent subatmospheric pressure to the wound surface by means of dressing systems. While there is general consen... Read More about Bioartificial scaffolds fabrication and their use for in vitro testing of wound healing devices.

Modeling and control of anterior–posterior and medial–lateral sways in standing posture (2022)
Journal Article
Hou, M., Fagan, M., Vanicek, N., & Dobson, C. A. (2022). Modeling and control of anterior–posterior and medial–lateral sways in standing posture. Journal of biomechanics, 134, Article 110930. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jbiomech.2021.110930

To study essential anterior–posterior and medial–lateral sways of the stance caused by rotational movements about the ankle and hip joints, a mathematical model is developed for the 3D postural kinematics and dynamics. The model is in the form of non... Read More about Modeling and control of anterior–posterior and medial–lateral sways in standing posture.

Assessments of bilateral asymmetry with application in human skull analysis (2021)
Journal Article
Hou, M., & Fagan, M. J. (2021). Assessments of bilateral asymmetry with application in human skull analysis. PLoS ONE, 16(10), Article e0258146. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0258146

As a common feature, bilateral symmetry of biological forms is ubiquitous, but in fact rarely exact. In a setting of analytic geometry, bilateral symmetry is defined with respect to a point, line or plane, and the well-known notions of fluctuating as...

Computational biomechanical modelling of the rabbit cranium during mastication (2021)
Journal Article
Watson, P. J., Sharp, A. C., Choudhary, T., Fagan, M. J., Dutel, H., Evans, S. E., & Gröning, F. (2021). Computational biomechanical modelling of the rabbit cranium during mastication. Scientific reports, 11(1), https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-021-92558-5

Although a functional relationship between bone structure and mastication has been shown in some regions of the rabbit skull, the biomechanics of the whole cranium during mastication have yet to be fully explored. In terms of cranial biomechanics, th... Read More about Computational biomechanical modelling of the rabbit cranium during mastication.
