摘要

Interfacial behaviour of the bone-cement interface has been studied under tensile, shear and mixed mode loading conditions. Bovine cancellous bone was used to bond with acrylic bone cement to form bone-cement interface samples, which were mechanically tested under selected tensile, shear and mixed mode loading conditions. The influence of the loading angle and the extent of the cement penetration on the interfacial behaviour were examined. The failure mechanisms with regard to loading mode were examined using micro-focus computed tomography. The measured tensile and shear responses were utilized in a cohesive zone constitutive model, from which the pre-yield linear and the post-yield exponential strain softening behaviour under mixed mode loading conditions was predicted. The implications of the work on the studies of cemented joint replacements are also discussed.
