Experimental determination of static and dynamic Young’s moduli of healthy and degenerated bovine articular cartilage using the split-Hopkinson pressure bar
Abstract:Osteoarthritis (OA) is a disease in which articular cartilage wears down due to degeneration associated with aging, which makes adjacent bones contact each other and causes pain. Considering that OA changes the mechanical properties of cartilage when it degenerates, it is important to investigate its mechanical properties under impact load. Therefore, in this study, dynamic and quasi-static tests using the split-Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) were carried out on healthy cartilage and cartilage with collagen fib… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
