A series of micromechanical tests carried out on the articular surface of cartilage have provided an accurate description of the mechanical properties of any one site with respect to the orientation framework obtained from its characteristic split-line direction. Ultrastructural studies revealed little evidence that the split-line direction correlated strongly with any preferred alignment of fibrils. This paper therefore offers a new interpretation of the biomechanical significance of the widely used split-line test for the articular surface of cartilage.
在软骨关节表面进行的一系列微观力学测试,已根据从其特征性分裂线方向获得的取向框架,对任何一个部位的力学性能进行了准确描述。超微结构研究几乎没有发现证据表明分裂线方向与原纤维的任何优先排列密切相关。因此,本文对广泛应用于软骨关节表面的分裂线测试的生物力学意义提出了一种新的解释。
