| Research Abstract |
In the present study, our final goal was to obtain an insight into the mechanisms of adaptation to mechanical stresses in musculoskeletal tissues such as bones, tendons, and ligaments. Mechanical behavior after non-destructive overloading was measured for bone specimens as well as bone-tendon and bone-ligament complexes. Moreover, we studied the mechanical properties of bone-tendon complexes treated with enzymes. The results obtained show the possibility that the deformation behavior and failure modes of bones, tendons, ligaments, and the insertion site between bones and tendons.
