Effect of nominal stress on the long term friction, deformation and wear of native and glycosaminoglycan deficient articular cartilage

Abstract: An increase in contact stress from 0.5 MPa to 3.15 MPa resulted in an increase in the COF and wear of native cartilage samples, due to cartilage tissue's inability to rehydrate itself completely and maintain a high fluid load support at the 4 mm stroke length under high contact stress levels. There was no effect of increasing contact stress levels on the COF and wear of GAG deficient cartilage samples due to the very high deformations observed in these samples and the smoothening of their surfaces under the hi… Show more

“…Moreover, the phenomenon of hydration and dehydration of the articular cartilage had signi cant e ects on the declining trend of friction [30]. In this study, there was no single trend of the coe cient of friction with the stainless steel ball against the arti cial cartilage.…”

“…As the time going, more interstitial water within the porous structure of hydrogels was squeezed out away the contact area, while there was insufficient time for the non-contact area to rehydration. Thus the proportion of load supported by the solid phase was continuously increased, which enlarged the solid-to-solid contact and increased the friction coefficient, and then reached to a relatively stable level [23,53]. As shown in Figure 8, the friction coefficient of the pure PVA hydrogel increased rapidly, and the samples were worn out within 800 s. After blended with PVP, the hydrogel was kept relatively low level of friction during the entire friction tests, which was due to the higher hydrophilcity of PVP and the resulting improved lubricity.…”

“…As previous metal on cartilage indentation tests have demonstrated: increased contact stress increases the deformation of articular cartilage (Forster and Fisher, 1996;Pawaskar et a/., 2007;Katta et a/., 2008b;McCann et a/., 2008).…”
