It is important to study joint contact mechanics to better understand the processes which lead to cartilage degradation. The purpose of this study was to develop and validate a finite element (FE) model of a human elbow capable of predicting joint contact area and stress. A cylindrical constrained elbow joint loading apparatus was used to measure the cartilage compression and contact area for a single...
Background. The objectives of this study were to quantify the indentation strength and modulus of distal humeral cancellous bone, and to identify regional variations. The motivations were to assist in prosthesis development and to optimize screw placement.Methods. Three consecutive 3mm transverse slices were sectioned from the distal ends of seven fresh-frozen cadaveric specimens. A 3×3mm grid was...
