1 Tribological and material properties for cartilage of and throughout the bovine stifle: support for the altered joint kinematics hypothesis of osteoarthritis  A.C. Moore, D.L. Burris  Osteoarthritis and Cartilage  Volume 23, Issue 1, Pages (January 2015) DOI: /j.joca Copyright © 2014 Osteoarthritis Research Society International Terms and Conditions

2 Fig. 1 Definitions of sample sites within the bovine stifle and the regions classified for purposes of comparison. Left: the frontal plane view of a bovine stifle joint. Center: the sagittal plane view for three flexion angles in which different samples experience cartilage–cartilage contact. Right: sampling locations on the femoral condyles and tibial plateau. The comparisons of interest are the femoral condyles vs tibial plateau, medial vs lateral, and outer femoral condyles (O) vs central femoral condyles (C) vs inner femoral condyles (I) vs shielded tibial plateau (S) vs uncovered tibial plateau (U).

4 Fig. 3 Representative data to illustrate the characterization of material properties. Left: force verses displacement curves for nominal speeds of 50, 0.5, 5, 20, and 10 μm/s, in that randomized order for a representative high functioning sample. Following the last indent the stage is held fixed until equilibrium is reached. The equilibrium contact modulus is obtained directly from that point and the dotted line represents the predicted Hertzian relationship between force and deformation. Right: the fluid load fraction is calculated for representative high and low functioning samples as a function of the prescribed indentation rate. The dark labels correspond to the force-displacement data on the left. The fits to the biphasic model from Moore and Burris16 are shown in red and were used to determine tissue permeability and tensile modulus.

5 Fig. 4 Correlations between the functional performance and material properties for bovine articular cartilage. The functional properties of interest are the effective friction coefficient (Left), effective contact modulus (Center) and fluid load fraction (Right). The Top row contains the best overall correlation for each functional metric. The Bottom row contains the best overall correlation for each functional metric against Ec0, k, and Ec0·k.
