Porosity in Cement Paste01:18

Porosity in Cement Paste

The porosity of concrete is a measure of the void spaces within its structure. These spaces impact its strength and durability significantly. When water and cement interact, a chemical reaction called hydration creates a semi-solid paste. This paste includes combined water, making up approximately 23% of the cement's dry mass, and gel water, which fills minuscule voids known as gel pores, accounting for about 28% of the cement gel volume.
The balance of water to cement in the mix is critical—it...
Bone Formation by Intramembranous Ossification01:29

Bone Formation by Intramembranous Ossification

Intramembranous ossification is one of the two processes involved in the development of bones within an embryo. The flat bones of the face, most of the cranial bones, and the clavicles are formed via this process. During intramembranous ossification, the bones develop directly from sheets of undifferentiated mesenchymal connective tissue.
The process begins when mesenchymal cells in the embryonic skeleton gather together and differentiate into osteogenic cells, which then develop into...
Bone Remodeling01:40

Bone Remodeling

Bone remodeling is a continuous and balanced process of bone resorption by osteoclasts and bone formation by osteoblasts. In adults, it helps maintain bone mass and calcium homeostasis. While mechanical stress can stimulate turnover as part of the normal maintenance and reparative process, several hormones also regulate bone remodeling.
Compact Bone01:27

Compact Bone

Most bones contain compact and spongy osseous tissue, but their distribution and concentration vary based on the bone's overall function.
Compact bone, also called cortical bone, is the denser, stronger of the two types of bone tissue. It is found under the periosteum and in the diaphyses of long bones, where it provides support and protection. The microscopic structural unit of compact bone is called an osteon, or haversian system. Each osteon is composed of concentric rings of calcified...

Area of Science:

  • Biomaterials Science
  • Orthopedic Biomechanics
  • Computational Mechanics

Background:

  • Cemented total hip arthroplasty interfaces degrade within a year.
  • Degenerated interface behavior under mixed-mode loading remains poorly understood.
  • Interface morphology's role in mechanical response is unclear.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the mixed-mode response of degenerated cement-bone interfaces using finite element analysis.
  • To investigate the feasibility of creating cohesive models based on morphological input.
  • To relate interface stiffness and failure to morphology.

Main Methods:

  • Computed tomography-based finite element (FE) models of postmortem cement-bone interfaces.
  • Loading models until failure under mixed-mode conditions with periodic boundary conditions.
  • Developing and relating a closed-form mixed-mode cohesive model to interface morphology.

Main Results:

  • FE simulations showed good agreement with experimental data, though strength/stiffness were overestimated.
  • No failure was predicted under shear loading; significant normal compression prevented dilation.
  • Mixed-mode stiffness response was successfully correlated with interface morphology.

Conclusions:

  • A cohesive zone model can be formulated using morphological data for degenerated interfaces.
  • The study provides a framework for inputting acquired data into cohesive models including failure.
  • Findings are crucial for understanding and predicting the mechanical behavior of aged hip arthroplasty components.
