A clear-sighted introduction to a complex subject, 'Internal
Marketing' provides the reader with a succinct overview of the most
recent thinking and practice. The text begins by defining what
internal marketing is and how it can work, and from this
foundation: * Outlines state-of-the-art thinking and practice *
Demonstrates how internal marketing can be used to facilitate such
diverse strategies as TQM, New Product Development and Change
Management * Highlights the techniques managers need to understand
to use IM effectively within their organizations * Contains a range
of international and up to the minute examples and cases of best
practice from companies around the world Throughout the book the
emphasis is on understanding the principles that have made internal
marketing such a potent force within leading corporations. This is
combined with a pragmatic assessment of the many challenges
involved in making it a reality within an organization.

This book shows computational finite element simulations to analyse
the strength of implant anchorage for intrasinus and extramaxillary
approaches under various occlusal loading locations and directions.
Three-dimensional model of the craniofacial area surrounding the
region of interest, soft tissue and framework are developed using
computed tomography image datasets. The zygomatic and standard
dental implants are modeled using a conventional computer-aided
design software and placed at the appropriate location. Material
properties are assigned appropriately for the cortical, cancellous
bones and implants with Masseter forces applied at the zygomatic
arch and occlusal loadings applied on the framework surface.
This book presents an analysis of the stress distribution and
contact stresses in severe rheumatoid wrist after total wrist
arthroplasty. It assesses and compares the load transfer throughout
the joint and contact pressure at the articulations. The data
obtained from this study is of importance as this provide greater
evidence to the benefits of total wrist arthroplasty in rheumatoid
arthritis patients.
Trauma Plating Systems is the first reference and systematic book
in the topic of trauma plating system in view of biomechanical,
material, biological, and clinical aspects. The effects of these
aspects on effectiveness of trauma plating fixation are deeply
reviewed, discussed, and challenged from which promising evaluation
and development concepts are explored. This book is divided into
five sections: Section I covers general concepts of biomechanical,
material, biological, and clinical aspects. Then it provides
fundamentals of trauma plating systems, principles of biomechanical
evaluation methods, and biomechanics of plating fixation in Section
II. Section III reviews current metallic materials with their
advantages and disadvantages in plating fixation of bone fractures
and new promising materials with their potential benefits to
enhance the effectiveness of plating fixation. Section IV
represents currently concerned biomechanical-clinical challenges of
plating fixation for various bone fractures, and Section V presents
current and new development concepts of this type of trauma
implants. This book as an accessible and easy usable textbook for
various disciplines of audiences who are dealing with trauma
plating system and fixation such as orthopedic surgeons, trauma
implant manufacturers, biomechanical researchers, biomaterial
researchers, and all biomedical or medical students and residents
in different levels of education. Author has been diligent in both
engineering and research environments in terms of research,
testing, analysis, validation, verification, clinical studies, and
technical writing. His main interest and effort is to integrate
biomechanical, material, biological, and clinical requirements of
orthopedic implants for creation of novel design conception in this
industry. He has developed the website
http://orthoimplant-development.com/ for further communication in
development of orthopedic implants.
This work identifies the characteristics of racket design
parameters that influence racket performance. It presents the
finite element analysis of several designs of badminton rackets and
compares them to experimental results for validation. Designing a
racket requires a comprehensive understanding of racket performance
characteristics. Essentially, racket performance is related to the
sweet spot, which is the spot on the racket head that produces the
most power and control when it strikes a shuttlecock. Determining a
coefficient of restitution can help to identify the sweet spot on a
racket. By analyzing several head shape designs, it becomes
apparent that isometric head shape rackets produce better
coefficients of restitution compared to oval and round ones. It is
recommended that the racket design consist of low string tension,
stiffer racket shafts and bigger head size in order to produce
higher shuttlecock speed.
This book develops and analyses computational wear simulations of
the total ankle replacement for the stance phase of gait cycle. The
emphasis is put on the relevant design parameters. The book
presents a model consisting of three components; tibial, bearing
and talar representing their physiological functions.
This book presents analyses of the most commonly reported failure
modes of hip stems: loosening and thigh pain; both are attributed
to the relative motion and instability at the bone-implant
interface due to failure to achieve sufficient primary fixation.
The book investigates various factors that could affect primary
stability and therefore the long-term outcome of hip arthroplasty.
The results complement experimental work carried out in this area
as in-vitro experiments have several limitations that could be
addressed through computer simulations.
