description | Mechanical characteristics of hard and soft tissues are central features for the quantitative description of tissue properties. In this study, we present a biphasic 3D-FE-based method to determine the biomechanical properties of sheep stifle joint articular cartilage (load-bearing area of the medial and lateral femur condyle, n = 28) from stress relaxation indentation tests (s = 0.1 mm, t = 180 s). The FE-model computation was optimized by exploiting the axial symmetry and mesh resolution. Parameters were determined using the Levenberg-Marquardt-algorithm. Results showed significant differences between the biomechanical parameters of the lateral (n = 11) and medial (n = 17) femur condyle of the sheep stifle joint articular cartilage. R² of the fit results varied between 0.91 and 0.99. Overall values for the Young’s modulus were 1.316 ± 0.778 MPa, for the Poisson’s ratio 0.106 ± 0.088 and for the permeability 0.008 ± 0.004 mm4/Ns. Future work will focus on studying the influence of experimental settings on the results obtained with the biphasic 3D-FE-model. |
