Journal ArticleDOI
The Multicomposite Structure of Tendon
TL;DR: A revised morphological model for the crimp structure of tendon is presented and small bunches of collagen fibrils removed from the tendon are shown to exhibit the simple planar zig-zag morphology described in previous literature.
Journal ArticleDOI
A structural mechanical model for tendon crimping.
J. Kastelic,I. Palley,Eric Baer +2 more
TL;DR: In this model, restoring force arises from the elasticity of those fibrils which are already straightened, and Resistance of a crimped fibril is assumed to be negligible.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanical and structural changes in rat tail tendon induced by alloxan diabetes and aging
TL;DR: In diabetic tendon an increase in the apparent failure region moduli, decreased stress relaxation rate, alterations of the crimp structure and a tendency toward larger collagen fibril diameters are observed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Crazing, yielding, and fracture in polycarbonate and polyethylene terephthalate at low temperatures
J. Kastelic,Eric Baer +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of the [dtilde-relaxation on tensile properties was investigated for amorphous polyethylene terephthalate and polycarbonate and three regimes in tensile behavior were distinguished and the transitions between these regimes are correlated with molecular relaxation processes.
