Localization of Viscous Behavior and Shear Energy Dissipation in Articular Cartilage Under Dynamic Shear Loading
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Though remarkably robust, articular cartilage becomes susceptible to damage at high loading rates, particularly under shear. While several studies have measured the local static and steadystate shear properties of cartilage, ...
Multiscale Strain as a Predictor of Impact-Induced Fissuring in Articular Cartilage
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Mechanical damage is central to both initiation and progression of osteoarthritis (OA). However, specific causal links between mechanics and cartilage damage are incompletely understood, which results in an inability to ...
