Immature bovine cartilage wear is due to fatigue failure from repetitive compressive forces and not reciprocating frictional forces

2021, Acta BiomaterialiaCitation Excerpt :As patients with chondral lesions are more likely to develop osteoarthritis (OA) than healthy controls [10], treating chondral lesions may serve as a promising early intervention to prevent OA. A chondral lesion may start from a small surface crack that formed following overloading (high magnitude/rates of strain/stress) [11–14] or overuse (fatigue from repetitive loading) [15–19] of the tissue. Tissue cracks affect the bulk mechanical properties of articular cartilage [18–24] and may cause further damage if the cracked cartilage continues to be mechanically loaded [25–27].

2018, BiotribologyCitation Excerpt :Bonnevie et al. also discussed that these plowing contributions, “cannot be determined without known pressure distributions”. The prevailing theory is that viscoelastic effects lead to an asymmetry in the pressure distributions – viscoelasticity is frequently measured and modeled for cartilage, tissues, and high-water content gels [2–6]. A recent finding using self-mated contacts of identical hydrogel samples (Gemini hydrogels) revealed a surprising speed independence in friction coefficient that spanned over 2 orders of magnitude in sliding speed [7], which was notable as the majority of healthy biological sliding interfaces are in Gemini configurations.
Effect of frequency on crack growth in articular cartilage
2018, Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical MaterialsCitation Excerpt :However, these studies were of cartilage-on-bone samples and tested in compression. Most studies on the tensile failure of cartilage (McCormack and Mansour, 1998; Weightman, 1976; Weightman et al., 1978; Kempson, 1982, 1991) have been concerned with variations in properties among joints, the effects of repeated load, and age. The tensile loading of human cartilage samples in vitro was shown to cause surface fibrillation (Weightman, 1976).
