The viscoelastic properties of the canine medial collateral ligament (MCL) were investigated. Stress-strain relationships at different strain rates, long-term stress relaxation and cyclic stress-strain curves of the MCL were obtained experimentally using a bone-MCL-bone preparation. The experimental data were used in conjunction with the quasi-linear viscoelastic theory as proposed by Fung [15] to characterize the reduced relaxation function, G(t) and elastic response sigma e (epsilon) of this tissue. It was found that the quasi-linear viscoelastic theory can adequately describe the time and history-dependent rheological properties of the canine medial collateral ligament.
对犬内侧副韧带（MCL）的粘弹性特性进行了研究。使用骨-MCL-骨标本，通过实验获得了MCL在不同应变率下的应力-应变关系、长期应力松弛和循环应力-应变曲线。实验数据与冯[15]提出的准线性粘弹性理论相结合，用于表征该组织的简化松弛函数G(t)和弹性响应σe(ε)。结果发现，准线性粘弹性理论能够充分描述犬内侧副韧带的时间和历史依赖性流变特性。
