The mechanical properties of tibiofemoral and patellofemoral articular cartilage in compression depend on anatomical regions
Abstract Articular cartilage in knee joint can be anatomically divided into different regions: medial and lateral condyles of femur; patellar groove of femur; medial and lateral plateaus of tibia covered or uncovered by meniscus. The stress–strain curves of cartilage in uniaxially unconfined compres...
