Residual Stresses01:26

Residual Stresses

Residual stresses reside in a structure even after removing the original stress inducer. This phenomenon often arises from varied plastic deformations across different parts of a structure. Consider a rod stretched beyond its yield point. It will not regain its original length due to permanent deformation. Even after load removal, the rod does not entirely lose stress because of uneven plastic deformations, resulting in residual stresses. The computation of these stresses in structures is...
Bones of the Upper Limb: Radius01:09

Bones of the Upper Limb: Radius

The radius is longer of the two bones that make up the human antebrachium or forearm. At the proximal end, the radius articulates with the capitulum of the humerus and the radial notch of the ulna to form the elbow joint. At the distal end, the radius articulates with the ulna via the ulnar notch, forming the distal radioulnar joint. Distally, the radius also attaches to the carpal wrist bones (scaphoid and lunate) to form the radiocarpal joint.
The radius has a nail-shaped head, and a short...
Residual Stresses in Bending01:18

Residual Stresses in Bending

In the study of elastoplastic members subjected to bending moments, understanding the loading and unloading phases is crucial for assessing material behavior and structural integrity. During the loading phase, as the bending moment increases, the material initially responds elastically, adhering to Hooke's Law, where stress is directly proportional to strain. When the load exceeds the yield strength, plastic deformation occurs, resulting in permanent strain and deformation that remains even...
Bones of the Lower Limb: Femur and Patella01:16

Bones of the Lower Limb: Femur and Patella

The femur is the body's longest and strongest bone spanning the thigh region. Its head articulates with the acetabulum of the hip bone to form the hip joint. A minor indentation on the medial side of the femoral head, called the fovea capitis, serves as the site of attachment for the ligament of the head of the femur. This weak ligament spans the femur and acetabulum and supports the hip joint. The narrowed region below the head is the neck of the femur. The inclination angle between the neck...
Bones of the Lower Limb: Tibia and Fibula01:10

Bones of the Lower Limb: Tibia and Fibula

The tibia is the main weight-bearing bone of the lower leg. It is larger than the fibula with which it is paired. The tibia is also the second longest bone in the body and is located right below the skin. The proximal end of the tibia forms the medial and the lateral condyle, which articulates with the condyles of the femur to form the knee joint. Between the articulating surfaces is the irregular elevated area known as the intercondylar eminence that serves as the inferior attachment point for...

Area of Science:

  • Biomechanical engineering
  • Orthopedic research
  • Vertebrate anatomy

Background:

  • Residual stresses are inherent mechanical stresses within bone tissue.
  • Understanding these stresses is crucial for comprehending bone mechanics and fracture healing.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To quantify residual stress distribution in vertebrate limb cortical bone.
  • To investigate the correlation between residual stress and osteon population density.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of rabbit limb bones (femur, tibia/fibula, humerus, radius/ulna).
  • Measurement of axial residual stresses at anterior and posterior cortical surfaces.
  • Microscopic observation of osteon population density at measurement sites.

Main Results:

  • Hindlimb bones exhibited higher average residual stresses (210 MPa) than forelimb bones (149 MPa).
  • Residual stress distribution varied between anterior and posterior positions, with regional differences observed.
  • A positive correlation (r=0.55, P<0.01) was found between residual stress magnitude and osteon population density.

Conclusions:

  • Tensile residual stresses are present throughout rabbit limb bones.
  • Osteon population density is a significant factor influencing the magnitude of residual stress in cortical bone.
