Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Both the studies of artificial joints and femoral and neck fracture fixation need to know the femoral neck cancellous bone creep mechanical properties.
OBJECTIVE: To quantitatively investigate the time-dependent variation of femoral neck creep.
METHODS: Creep experiments were conducted on eight femoral neck cancellous bone specimen using an electronic all-powerful machine. The experiments were performed at 36.5 ℃ as the body temperature, and the stress speed was
0.11 MPa/s. The experiment duration was 7 200 s. On hundred experiment data were collected and processed based on a three-parameter model.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The femoral neck cancellous bone creep changed quickly within initially 600 s, and then went up slowly. The creep amount was 0.84%. The creep curves changed in an index manner, and the three-parameter model was very good to fit the creep curves and equations of the femoral neck cancellous bone.
