An investigation into the influence of cardiovascular stent design on the development of restenosis using the finite element method
Lally, Caitriona (Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, 2004)Finite element models, which can determine the degree of vascular injury caused to a vessel by a stent and hence ascertain the propensity of that stent design to cause in¬stent restenosis, would be a valuable tool for both ... -

Computational investigations of variability in mechanobiological simulations of tissue differentiation
Khayyeri, Hanifeh (Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, 2012)Theories of mechanoregulation have been integrated in computational models of mechanobiological experiments to test hypotheses of mechanobiology. It is believed that computational models need to be improved by considering ... -
Grand Canal Innovation District A Vision for Ireland
Prendergast, Patrick; O'Brien, Diarmuid (Trinity College Dublin , the University of Dublin, 2018-07)Trinity is spearheading the development of the Grand Canal Innovation District concept in collaboration with the other Dublin universities and the broader enterprise community. We are outlining our vision and issuing ... -
Mechanical Influences on Morphogenesis of the Knee Joint Revealed through Morphological, Molecular and Computational Analysis of Immobilised Embryos.
Prendergast, Patrick; Murphy, Paula (University of Edinburgh (datashare), 2011)Very little is known about the regulation of morphogenesis in synovial joints. Mechanical forces generated from muscle contractions are required for normal development of several aspects of normal skeletogenesis. Here we ... -
Mechanoregulation of bone formation : from embryogenesis to evolution
Nowlan, Niamh C. (Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, 2007)In summary the author's thesis is that biophysical stimuli mechanoregulate ossification events through the action of mechanosensitive genes, where mechanoregulation is an ontogenetic process which has evolved. The author ... -
The influence of age on cyclic tensile strain-induced differentiation and apoptosis in mesenchymal stem cells
McKayed, Katey (Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Physiology, 2012)Mesenchymal stem cells, or MSCs, are adult progenitor cells capable of differentiating into specialised skeletal cells such as chondrocytes, osteocytes and adipocytes. Under the appropriate conditions, these cells can be ... -
