How does cartilage fail? We explore 3 possible mechanisms via FE: collagen fibril governed; brittle vs ductile failure as a function of loading rate; pressurization fragmentation vs strain-governed as a function of loading rate. In #JMBBM.

Soroush at the busy #ORS2024 poster session. Lots of great discussion!

Ready for PS2 at #ORS2024

Many thanks to the UW-Madison Mechanical Engineering and UW-Madison BME at the University of Wisconsin-Madison for being a joint student event sponsor for SB3C 2024!

We're #hiring a #postdoc for post-op outcomes research. This position will work w/ BAP & the UW Hip Preservation Program, lead by Andrea Spiker, MD. Please share w/ your networks! Details & application instructions below & available at bit.ly/3T65ifn (Search "Injuries")

Congratulations to Daniel Pearce who won an Award for Mentoring Undergraduates in Research, Scholarly and Creative Activities! The Office of the Provost offers awards to recognize exceptional mentors. Support him as he receives the award today at 4pm Varsity Hall, Union South.

We have an open #postdoc position focused on computational modeling to predict fracture risk in racing Thoroughbreds. Please RT and share!

When you’re planning out your schedule for SB3C Organizers make sure you catch our workshop “Biomechanics, Bioengineering & Biotransport (B3): Clinical Perspective” on Thursday 6/13 from 2-3:30 in Linwood!

#newinJBME This #technicalbrief from Joshua D Roth describes the design and validation of a four-actuator experiment to measure the shear modulus of fibrous tissues at different tensile loads, with applications in tendon and ligament biomechanics. doi.org/10.1115/1.4064…

We have an open #postdoc position on a new NIH award focused on redox biology in cartilage and the development of a therapeutic screen platform.
