An experimental study of the heterogeneity and anisotropy of porcine meniscal ultimate tensile strength
Characterizing the ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of the meniscus is critical in studying knee damage and pathology. This study aims to determine the UTS of the meniscus with an emphasis on its heterogeneity and anisotropy. We performed tensile tests to failure on the menisci of six month old Yorkshire pigs at a low strain rate. Specimens from the anterior, middle and posterior regions of the meniscus were tested in the radial and circumferential directions. Then the UTS was obtained for each specimen and the data were analyzed statistically, leading to a comprehensive view of the variations in porcine meniscal strength. The middle region has the highest average strength in the circumferential (43.3 ± 4.7 MPa) and radial (12.6 ± 2.2 MPa) directions. This is followed by the anterior and posterior regions, which present similar average values (about ) in circumferential direction. The average strength of each region in the radial direction is approximately one-fourth to one-third of the value in the circumferential direction. This study is novel as it is the first work to focus on the experimental methods to investigate the heterogeneity and anisotropy only for porcine meniscus.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials is concerned with the mechanical deformation, damage and failure under applied forces, of biological material (at the tissue, cellular and molecular levels) and of biomaterials, i.e. those materials which are designed to mimic or replace biological materials.
The primary focus of the journal is the synthesis of materials science, biology, and medical and dental science. Reports of fundamental scientific investigations are welcome, as are articles concerned with the practical application of materials in medical devices. Both experimental and theoretical work is of interest; theoretical papers will normally include comparison of predictions with experimental data, though we recognize that this may not always be appropriate. The journal also publishes technical notes concerned with emerging experimental or theoretical techniques, letters to the editor and, by invitation, review articles and papers describing existing techniques for the benefit of an interdisciplinary readership.
