Presentation Transcript

  1. Bones Adaptation • Overuse: Exercise

  2. Bone Adaptation • Disuse: bone mass is reduced

  3. Aging and Bone • Is it possible that we can compensate to age related changes in decreased bone density by changing geometry? • Hip fractures

  4. Bone Biology • Cells in fibrous organic matrix

  5. Collagen

  6. Cells • Osteoblasts- • Osteoclasts- • Osteocytes-

  7. Bone classification • Cortical Bone • Trabecular Bone

  8. X-section of Bone

  9. Bone architecture

  10. Trabecular Bone (aging)

  11. Review???? • Deformation of an axially loaded long rod? F F

  12. Review

  13. Bone Shape • Since bone isn’t straight, the compressive loads also cause bending

  14. Bone stresses • Bending an I beam, • But... Long bones are subjected to???

  15. Bone Loading • Axial compressive load • Bending (multiple directions) • Torsion • So, why is the bone hollow?

  16. Bone Loading

  17. Bone Loading-Aging • Elderly increase both surfaces • Appear that elderly bones see because of geometry, but their is higher, so material properties.

  18. Bone-Aging • Change in geometry is not enough to make up for decreased material properties • And--- they have a decline in their “senses” as well with age-so less stable and fall more often.

  19. Bone-Torsion • Angle of Twist in a circular bar subjected to a known torque, T?

  20. Aging σult men Women-due to estrogen age Estrogen inhibits bone resorption

  21. Material Prop. of Cortical Bone • Rate of loading (strain rate, ε) • Normal activities (walking)

  22. Material Prop. of Cortical Bone • Rate of loading • Orientation of microstructure w/r/t loading direction

  23. Material Prop. Of Trabecular Bone Modulus trabecular bone~50MPa, tensile strength ~3MPa

  24. Material Prop. Of Trabecular Bone • Yielding occurs as trabeculae fracture *** Example 6 in book ***

  25. Age-geometry changes • Men compensate more than women by changing their cortical bone diaphyseal geometry to counter the decrease in strength *** Examples 8 in book*****

  26. Fracture Risk/Prediction • * when we finish this section, hopefully we will understand why women fracture hip more often • Yes, increased hip span-which relates to increased moment arm out to muscles, so slight increases in contact forces in hip---but….. You don’t fracture your hip due to contact forces while walking.

  27. Fracture Risk/Prediction • By definition, Fracture:.

  28. Fracture Risk/Prediction • Load-Bearing capacity: • Determining bone fracture:

  29. Fracture Risk/Prediction • hip fractures occur during a fall • Fracture in bone of hip • Fewer than 2% of falls in elderly result in hip fracture

  30. Fracture Risk/Prevention • Factors related to the tendency to fall • not study in this class • Fall severity (i.e. mag. and dir. of loads) • Strength of femur

  31. Fall severity • Fall to the side rather than other direction • Increase in potential energy • Arm strength to break fall • Muscle activity • Soft tissue thickness over hip

  32. Influences strength of proximal femur • Material properties • Size (total amount) • Shape (spatial distribution, I,J)
