  5. Properties of Biological Materials • Basic Concepts • Properties of Selected Biological Materials • Bone • Articular Cartilage • Ligaments & Muscle-Tendon Units

  6. Structural Properties Load-deformation relationships of like tissues Material Properties Stress-strain relationships of different tissues Structural vs. Material Properties

  7. Terminology • load – the sum of all the external forces and moments acting on the body or system • deformation – local changes of shape within a body

  8. Load-deformation relationship • Changes in shape (deformation) experienced by a tissue or structure when it is subjected to various loads

  9. Extent of deformation dependent on: • Size and shape (geometry) • Material • Structure • Environmental factors (temperature, humidity) • Nutrition • Load application • Magnitude, direction, and duration of applied force • Point of application (location) • Rate of force application • Frequency of load application • Variability of magnitude of force

  10. Uniaxial Loads Axial Compression Tension Shear Multiaxial Loads Biaxial loading responses Triaxial loading responses Bending Torsion Types of Loads

  11. Types of Loads

  12. Axial Loads Whiting & Zernicke (1998)

  13. Shear Loads Whiting & Zernicke (1998)

  14. Axial Loads Create shear load as well Whiting & Zernicke (1998)

  15. Biaxial & Triaxial Loads Whiting & Zernicke (1998)

  16. Structural Properties Load-deformation relationships of like tissues Material Properties Stress-strain relationships of different tissues Structural vs. Material Properties

  17. Terminology – Stress ()  = F/A (N/m2 or Pa) • normalized load • force applied per unit area, where area is measured in the plane that is perpendicular to force vector (CSA)

  18. Terminology – Strain ()  = dimension/original dimension • normalized deformation • change in shape of a tissue relative to its initial shape

  19. How are Stress () and Strain () related? • “Stress is what is done to an object, strain is how the object responds”. • Stress and Strain are proportional to each other. Modulus of elasticity = stress/strain

  20. Typical Stress-Strain Curve

  21. Elastic region & Plastic region

  22. Stiffness Fig. 3.26a, Whiting & Zernicke, 1998

  23. Stiffness (Elastic Modulus)

  25. Strength stiffness ≠ strength • Yield • Ultimate Strength • Failure

  26. Apparent vs. Actual Strain 1. Ultimate Strength2. Yield Strength3. Rupture4. Strain hardening region5. Necking regionA: Apparent stress B: Actual stress

  30. Rate of Loading • Bone is stiffer, sustains a higher load to failure, and stores more energy when it is loaded with a high strain rate.

  31. Stiffness Strength Elasticity Ductility Brittleness Malleability Toughness Resilience Hardness Bulk mechanical properties

  32. Ductility • Characteristic of a material that undergoes considerable plastic deformation under tensile load before rupture • Can you draw???

  33. Brittleness • Absence of any plastic deformation prior to failure • Can you draw???

  34. Malleability • Characteristic of a material that undergoes considerable plastic deformation under compressive load before rupture • Can you draw???

  35. Resilience

  36. Toughness

  37. Hardness • Resistance of a material to scratching, wear, or penetration

  38. Uniqueness of Biological Materials • Anisotropic • Viscoelastic • Time-dependent behavior • Organic • Self-repair • Adaptation to changes in mechanical demands

  39. …blast – produce matrix …clast – resorb matrix …cyte – mature cell synthesis & maintenance defense & clean up determines the functional characteristics of the connective tissue Distinguishes CT from other tissues

  41. Bind cells • Mechanical links • Resist tensile loads • Number & type of cells • Proportion of collagen, elastin, & ground substance • Arrangement of protein fibers

  42. Why study? • Design structures that are safe against the combined effects of applied forces and moments • Selection of proper material • Determine safe & efficient loading conditions

  43. Application • Injury occurs when an imposed load exceeds the tolerance (load-carrying ability) of a tissue • Training effects • Drug effects • Equipment Design effects

  45. Mechanical Properties of Bone • General • Nonhomogenous • Anisotropic • Strongest • Stiffest • Tough • Little elasticity

  46. Material Properties: Bone Tissue • Cortical: Stiffer, stronger, less elastic (~2% vs. 50%), low energy storage

  47. Mechanical Properties of Bone • Ductile vs. Brittle • Depends on age and rate at which it is loaded • Younger bone is more ductile • Bone is more brittle at high speeds

  48. Metal Glass  Bone  • Stiffest? • Strongest? • Brittle? • Ductile? young old
