[(a) and (b)] $\frac{E_d(z)}{E_d^{\mathit{tot}}}$vs. depth z in articular cartilage sheared from initial strains γ_i = 0% and γ_i = 12% with f = 1 Hz and ε_c = 20%. Data are mean ± SD, horizontal bars denote p ≤ 0.05/3, and (*) denotes p ≤ 0.05 versus (*) z > 250 μm. In (a), (c), and (e), only upper or lower error bars for selected points are shown to enhance clarity.
