## Abstract The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of mechanical fatigue in the form of cyclic shear strain on articular cartilage. Three millimeter diameter fullβthickness plugs were cored from the lateral aspect of bovine tibial plateaus. Sinusoidal shear strains of Β±5, Β±10, a
## Abstract Focal damage to articular cartilage is common in arthroscopy patients, and may contribute to progressive tissue degeneration by altering the local mechanical environment. The effects of a focal defect, which may be oriented at various orientations relative to the subchondral bone, on th
