Bone cement used in orthopaedics (PMMA) is a viscoelastic material. Macroscopically, the cement structure is composed of aggregates in the form of polymer spheres with the dimensions of 10÷18 micrometers connected with polymerized monomer bridges. After mixing, it is initially a fluid, which then becomes increasingly viscous and hardens. During polymerization, the material is plastic and can be easily...
The numerical calculations made in the work included the analysis of stress distribution near the rift top and determination of the stress intensity coefficient (WIN) as well as the J integral during three-point bending of SENB samples made from composites with a matrix of two well-known thermoplastics: PP and PA6 with a 25% content of glass fibre. Analysis of the composites crack development and...
