Time Evolution of Deformation in a Human Cartilage Under Cyclic Loading

Recent imaging has revealed that in vivo contact deformations of human knee cartilage under physiological loadings are surprisingly large-typically on the order of 10%, but up to 20 or 30% of tibiofemora cartilage thickness depending on loading conditions. In this paper we develop a biphasic, large...
