Mit freundlicher Genehmigung des Verlags Zusammenfassung: Auf der Basis von Patientenabfragen mittels Fragebogen zum Schmerzempfinden und zur Einschr{\"a}nkung bei Aktivit{\"a}ten des allt{\"a}glichen Lebens wird die Langzeitwirkung der MBST® KernspinResonanz-Therapie bei Gonarthrose untersucht. An der Studie nahmen 39 Patienten teil, bei denen die Therapie bis zu vier Jahre zur{\"u}ckliegt. Neben einer Gesamtbetrachtung wird der Erfolg auch in Abh{\"a}ngigkeit von Alter, Geschlecht und sportlicher Aktivit{\"a}t analysiert. Insgesamt weist die Studie auf eine anhaltende Verbesserung des Gesundheitszustands mit zum Teil deutlicher Schmerzlinderung auch noch nach vier Jahren hin, jedoch mit einer leichten Schmerzzunahme gegen Ende des Untersuchungszeitraums von vier Jahren. Eine tendenziell positivere Wirkung bei Frauen, {\"a}lteren Menschen oder auch sportlich nicht-aktiven Patienten l{\"a}sst auf eine m{\"o}gliche Beeinflussung des Erfolgs der Therapie durch ({\"U}ber-)Belastung im Alltag schließen. Ein zus{\"a}tzlich positiver Effekt der Therapie auf die Knochendichte ist ebenfalls denkbar, dies bleibt jedoch offen.}, subject = {Kniegelenkarthrose}, language = {de} } @article{Staat2005, author = {Staat, Manfred}, title = {Local and global collapse pressure of longitudinally flawed pipes and cylindrical vessels}, year = {2005}, abstract = {Limit loads can be calculated with the finite element method (FEM) for any component, defect geometry, and loading.

The basic idea of the developed method is the coupling of a scalar value via an eigenvalue problem to the principal stress trajectories. On the one hand this theory will permit a prediction of the reaction of the biological bone structure after the implantation of a prosthesis, on the other hand it may be useful in engineering optimization problems.
