Biomechanics of trabecular bone.
Trabecular bone is a complex material with substantial heterogeneity. Its elastic and strength properties vary widely across anatomic sites, and with aging and disease. Although these properties depend very much on density, the role of architecture and tissue material properties remain uncertain. It is interesting that the strains at which the bone fails are almost independent of density. Curre...
متن کاملPEEK Versus Ti Interbody Fusion Devices: Resultant Fusion, Bone Apposition, Initial and 26-Week Biomechanics.
STUDY DESIGN Comparative evaluation of in vitro and in vivo biomechanics, resulting fusion and histomorphometric aspects of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) versus titanium (Ti) interbody fusion devices in an animal model with similar volumes of bone graft. OBJECTIVE Identify differences in the characteristics of fusion and biomechanics immediately following implantation (time 0) and at 26 weeks w...
متن کاملBiomechanics in bone tissue engineering.
Biomechanics may be considered as central in the development of bone tissue engineering. The initial mechanical aspects are essential to the outcome of a functional tissue engineering approach; so are aspects of interface micromotion, bone ingrowths inside the scaffold and finally, the mechanical integrity of the scaffold during its degradation. A proposed view is presented herein on how biomec...
متن کاملBiomechanics of Physiological and Pathological Bone Structures
In 1995 Kuttner and Goldberg defined osteoarthritis as a group of distinct simultaneous diseases, which may have different etiologies but have similar biologic, morphologic, and clinical outcomes. The disease processes does not only affect the articular cartilage, but involve the entire joint, including the subchondral bone, ligaments, capsule, synovial membrane, and periarticular muscles. Ulti...
متن کاملChapter 6. Biomechanics and Mechanobiology of Bone
The primary responsibility of the skeleton is to provide structural support for the body. In this role, the skeleton is the basis of posture, opposes muscular contraction conveying locomotion, withstands the daily challenges of load bearing, and protects internal organs. The structural success of the skeleton, achieved through the interdependent contributions of the skeleton’s morphology and me...
