Evaluating changes in tendon crimp with fatigue loading as an ex vivo structural assessment of tendon damage.
The complex structure of tendons relates to their mechanical properties. Previous research has associated the waviness of collagen fibers (crimp) during quasi-static tensile loading to tensile mechanical properties, but less is known about the role of fatigue loading on crimp properties. In this study (IACUC approved), mouse patellar tendons were fatigue loaded while an integrated plane polaris...
متن کاملFatigue Damage
Prevention of unexpected failures is a fundamental design objective in any engineering structure or system subjected to fatigue. Nevertheless, the complexity of modern structures and the interactivity among engineering systems, coupled with human fallibility, means that failure and its consequences can only be avoided to a statistical probability. Hence, occasional catastrophic failures will oc...

The goal of the present research is to develop a better understanding of the tensile response of open-cellular aluminum 6061 T6 alloy. Both tensile and compression samples of this metallic foam were tested under constant strain rate conditions at 293, 423, and 523 K. Scanning electron microscopy was performed on individual struts to assess the modes and mechanisms associated with fracture. Theo...
متن کاملFatigue Failure and Damage Analysis of an Anti-roll Bar Subjected to Fatigue Experiments
The available fatigue theories have been examined using simple specimens subjected to bending or tension-compression loads. Therefore, the stress fields have been generally one or two dimensional. Anti-roll bar is a component belongs to the suspension system of the vehicles. In spite of having simple circular section, due to the having several curvatures, this component experiences a three-dime...
متن کاملTendon fatigue in response to mechanical loading.
Tendinopathies are commonly attributable to accumulation of sub-rupture fatigue damage from repetitive use. Data is limited to late stage disease from patients undergoing surgery, motivating development of animal models, such as ones utilizing treadmill running or repetitive reaching, to investigate the progression of tendinopathies. We developed an in vivo model using the rat patellar tendon t...
