Biomedical Analysis of Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion (LLIF) Cage for Lumbar Vertebrae by Zulkefli, Aiman Asiqin, Mazlan, Muhammad Hazli, Takano, Hiromitsu, Md Salleh, Nur Saliha, Jalil, Muhammad Hilmi

“…Objective: To develop the interbody cages implanted between the lumbar vertebrae by evaluating the strength of the bone model and the spinal cage. Materials and methods: In this study, finite element analysis (FEA) was applied using Mechanical Finder software (MF) to develop a 3D spine model lumbar vertebrae of the fourth and fifth lumbar vertebrae (L4 - L5) with various interbody cage designs, including honeycomb and rectilinear patterns with 50%, 70%, and 100% infill densities. …”

Strange attractors in the Vannimenus model on an arbitrary order cayley tree by Ganikhodjaev, Nasir, Akin, Hasan, Temir, Seyit, Uguz, Selman, Nawi, Ashraf Mohamed

“…In this paper we study the phase diagram of the model using an iterative scheme for a renormalized effective nearest-neighbour coupling Kr and effective field per site Xr for spins on the rth level; it recovers, as particular cases, previous works by Vannimenus, Inawashiro et al, Mariz et al and Ganikhodjaev and Uǧuz. …”

On the strong phase transition for the one-dimensional countable statep-adic Potts model by Mukhamedov, Farrukh

“…Note that it turns out that the obtained condition does not depend on values of the prime p and, therefore, an analogous fact is not true when the number of spins is �nite. Note that, in the usual real case, if one considers a one-dimensional translation- invariant model with nearest neighbor interaction, then such a model does not exhibit a phase transition. …”
