Experimental determination of static and dynamic Young’s moduli of healthy and degenerated bovine articular cartilage using the split-Hopkinson pressure bar

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a disease in which articular cartilage wears down due to degeneration associated with aging, which makes adjacent bones contact each other and causes pain. Considering that OA changes the mechanical properties of cartilage when it degenerates, it is important to investigate it...
