Hydrostatic Pressurization and Depletion of Trapped Lubricant Pool During Creep Contact of a Rippled Indenter Against a Biphasic Articular Cartilage Layer
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study presents an analysis of the contact of a rippled rigid impermeable indenter against a cartilage layer, which represents a first simulation of the contact of rough cartilage surfaces ...
Frictional Response of Bovine Articular Cartilage Under Creep Loading Following Proteoglycan Digestion With Chondroitinase ABC
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The specific aim of this study was to investigate the effect of chondroitinase ABC treatment on the frictional response of bovine articular cartilage against glass, under creep loading. The ...
Cartilage Interstitial Fluid Load Support in Unconfined Compression Following Enzymatic Digestion
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Interstitial fluid pressurization plays an important role in cartilage biomechanics and is believed to be a primary mechanism of load support in synovial joints. The objective of this study was ...
