Abstract: A description is given of the results obtained for step excitation for two human knee joint specimens using a time-domain analysis technique. As was expected from the results of a previous ...

Abstract: Characteristic results of postmortem experiments on five knee-joint specimens are reported. The experiments were performed to investigate the applicability of a local linearization technique that ...

Abstract: Uniaxial confined compression and swelling experiments on cylindrical specimens taken either in an axial or in a radial direction from a canine lumbar annulus fibrosus are presented. The loading ...

Abstract: An experimental approach for an in vitro investigation of some aspects of dynamic force transmission through the human knee joint is presented. Essentially, the behavior of the joint was analyzed ...
