Abstract

The interface between materials with very different properties is quite often the weakest point in a construction. Interfaces of metal implants into bone are particularily prone to failure, a major cause for reparative surgery. The present study explores the natural interface between cartilage and bone in order to provide for potentially alternative surface textures and to allow deduction of the rules of construction governing those interfaces.
