RIS1980 Advances in Bioengineering
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
On the Natural Lubrication of Synovial Joints: Normal and Degenerate
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Fluid flow and mass transport mechanisms associated with articular cartilage function are important biomechanical processes of normal and pathological synovial joints. A three-layer permeable, ...
A Finite Element Analysis of the Indentation Stress-Relaxation Response of Linear Biphasic Articular Cartilage
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The indentation problem of a thin layer of hydrated soft tissue such as cartilage or meniscus by a circular plane-ended indenter is investigated. The tissue is represented by a biphasic continuum ...
Effects of Friction on the Unconfined Compressive Response of Articular Cartilage: A Finite Element Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A finite element analysis is used to study a previously unresolved issue of the effects of platen-specimen friction on the response of the unconfined compression test; effects of platen ...
Effects of Nonlinear Strain-Dependent Permeability and Rate of Compression on the Stress Behavior of Articular Cartilage
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The compressive viscoelastic behavior of articular cartilage, a fiber-reinforced, porous, permeable solid matrix filled with water, is predominately governed by the flow of the interstitial water ...
The Role of Flow-Independent Viscoelasticity in the Biphasic Tensile and Compressive Responses of Articular Cartilage
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A long-standing challenge in the biomechanics of connective tissues (e.g., articular cartilage, ligament, tendon) has been the reported disparities between their tensile and compressive properties. ...
A Triphasic Orthotropic Laminate Model for Cartilage Curling Behavior: Fixed Charge Density Versus Mechanical Properties Inhomogeneity
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Osmotic pressure and associated residual stresses play important roles in cartilage development and biomechanical function. The curling behavior of articular cartilage was believed to be the ...

On the Electric Potentials Inside a Charged Soft Hydrated Biological Tissue: Streaming Potential Versus Diffusion Potential
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The main objective of this study is to determine the nature of electric fields inside articular cartilage while accounting for the effects of both streaming potential and diffusion potential. ...
Experimental Verification of the Roles of Intrinsic Matrix Viscoelasticity and Tension-Compression Nonlinearity in the Biphasic Response of Cartilage
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A biphasic-CLE-QLV model proposed in our recent study [2001, J. Biomech. Eng., 123 , pp. 410–417] extended the biphasic theory of Mow et al. [1980, J. Biomech. Eng., 102 , pp. 73–84] to ...
