Fig. 3From: Influence of hyaluronic acid on intra-articular friction – a biomechanical study in whole animal jointsRepresentative plots for joint motion. Specified angle of rotation (angle [deg]) and measured torque moment (moment [Nm]) in different conditions. The dissipated energy is represented by the area enclosed within the hysteresis curve. Red: Native joint and 400 N axial load. Blue: Cartilage defect and 400 N axial loadBack to article page
