Abstract:
:Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is a key fibrous connective tissue that maintains the stability of a knee joint and it is the most commonly injured ligament of the knee. A synthetic prosthesis in the form of a braided structure can be an attractive alternative to biological grafts provided that the mechanical properties can be tailored to mimic the natural ACL. In the present work, the polypropylene based structurally gradient braided prostheses have been designed and developed by understanding their tensile properties. Circular braiding process was employed to fabricate structurally gradient braided prostheses by systematically placing different types of braids in defined set of layers. An analytical model for predicting the tensile properties of structurally gradient braided prostheses has been presented by modifying and combining the existing models available in the literature. Specifically, the full set of stress-strain behaviour of structurally gradient braided prostheses has been computed based upon braid structural characteristics, constituent strand properties and braid kinematics. A triaxial braid in the outer layer of braided prostheses was found to withstand higher tensile stresses in comparison to a biaxial braid having same structural characteristics. A comparison has been made between the theoretical and experimental results of tensile properties of structurally gradient braided prostheses. The tensile properties of structurally gradient braided prostheses predicted through analytical route matched reasonably well with the experimental results.
