FATIGUE IN VERTEBRATE TENDONS: BIOMECHANICAL AND STRUCTURAL CORRELATES OF ONTOGENETIC AND ADAPTIVE CHANGE. Tendons are important vertebrate tissues, but little is known about their mechanical properties under fatigue-loading. Recent research has shown that dramatic differences in fatigue properties occur and that these appear to be linked to the functional roles of tendons. This project uses a variety of approaches to explore how mechanical and structural properties of tendons change during growth, maturation and adaptation to different loading environments, and the cellular basis of fatigue resistance. An understanding of fatigue properties from cellular to tissue levels has significance in the areas of general biology, materials science and biomedical science.

脊椎动物肌腱的疲劳：个体发生和适应性变化的生物力学和结构相关性。肌腱是重要的脊椎动物组织，但对于疲劳加载下的机械性能知之甚少。最近的研究表明，疲劳性质的显着差异，这些差异似乎与肌腱的功能作用有关。该项目使用多种方法来探讨肌腱在生长，成熟和适应不同负载环境的机械和结构特性以及疲劳抗性的细胞基础如何变化。在一般生物学，材料科学和生物医学科学领域，了解从细胞到组织水平的疲劳特性具有重要意义。
