Biomechanics of Anterior Cruciate Ligament Failure: An Analysis of Strain-Rate Sensitivity and Mechanisms of Failure in Primates

NOYES, FRANK R., DELUCAS, JAMES L., TORVIK, PETER J.·1974·The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery

Abstract

Anterior cruciate bone-ligament-bone preparations of wild primates tested in tension failed at a higher load and greater elongation, and absorbed more energy, at a fast rate of deformation than at a slow rate. The major mode of specimen failure changed from a predominance of tibial avulsion fractures at the slow rate to ligament disruption at the fast rate. Failure at the two deformation rates commonly occurred by a serial mechanism involving from one to all components of the bone-ligament-bone unit to different degrees. Factors important in ligament-failure properties included: (1) rate-dependent behaviors, (2) geometrical arrangement of collagen fibers, (3) surrounding ground-substance effects, (4) osseous insertion-site effects, and (5) the influence of non-physiological experimental loading conditions and disuse-induced changes in specimens.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
