This paper is a summary of an attempt to provide a phenomenological model in order to capture the nonlinear behavior of bracing members. The result obtained from modeling of a bracing system with the aid of the phenomenological model is compared with the result of a test to investigate the accuracy of the investigated model. Furthermore, static non-linear analyses are performed on an inverted V-braced subassembly using the phenomenological model as well as a convenient physical theory model. According to this study, the proposed phenomenological model is capable to favorably capture the behavior of a brace member under a cyclic loading. Hence, it can be used in analytical models of structural lateral bracing systems to assess accurately the nonlinear behavior of these systems.

A combined theoretical and experimental investigation is reported with respect to the influence of mechanical loading on loosening at the cement bone interface of knee prostheses with intermedullary stems. The in vitro experiments have been performed under cyclic loading conditions with the tibial part of a Shiers knee prosthesis implanted in fresh cadaver tibiae. The experimental results indicate an unfavourable effect of peak loading (as occurring in walking up stairs) on loosening as compared with loading due to normal walking conditions.
