Abstract: Fatigue tests of human cortical bone (up to 1.74 × 106 cycles) were conducted under tension-compression (T-C) and zero-tension (O-T) modes with a 2Hz, stress controlled, sinusoidal loading ...

Abstract: A technique is established which allows an effective torsional shear modulus to be determined for long bones, while remaining nondestructive to whole bone specimens. Strain gages are bonded to ...
