Connective Tissue • ligaments • tendons • bones • synovium • labra • cartilage • bursa • fat pads etc.
Connective Tissue • Extra-cellular matrix • Cells - blast – synthesis of extracellular matrix (collagen) - clast – break-down extracellular matrix
Extra-cellular matrix • Non-Fibrous Ground Substance - glycoproteins & proteoglycans - H2O binding, structure, protection
Extra-cellular matrix • Fibrous - collagen (white) - elastin (yellow)
Bone • Hardest CT • Protects • Links • Attachment site • Facilitates movement (lever)
Components of Bone • Inorganic (rigid/hard) - Ca and PO3 (65-70% of wt.) • Organic (flexible/resilient) - collagen (25-30% of wt.)
Components of Bone • Ground Substance - GAG • H20 (25% of wt.) • Cells
Structure of Bone • Fundamental unit: osteon or haversian system • Concentric layers/lamellae • Collagen is intertwined ( strength)
Structure of Bone • Cortical/Compact - outer layer - more dense • Withstands compression > tensile > shear
Mechanical Behavior • Affected by: • loading mode – type of force/torque • rate of loading • frequency of loading • geometric characteristics • mechanical properties of materials
Loading Mode • Tensile - attachment sites • Compressive - vertebra • Shear - fx in cancellous bone / tibial plateau • Bending
Loading Mode • torsion – twisting about the longitudinal axis spiral fx. • combined loading – explains most fractures
High loading Rate Load Low loading Rate Deformation Rate of Loading • Bone is viscoelastic • Load to failure rate almost doubled
Injury Load Repetition Frequency of Loading
Stress/Fatigue Fx Model Strenuous Exercise Fatigued Muscle Loss of Shock Absorbing Capacity Altered Gait Abnormal Loading Altered Stress Distribution High Compression Slow Combined Process High Tension Fast Debonding of Osteons/transverse cracks Oblique Cracks Oblique Fracture Transverse Fracture
Geometric Properties • Stress = force/area (large the cross-sectional area stiffer and stronger the bone) • Longer the bone the more susceptible to bending moments
