Abstract: | Conclusions The results of this study show that the ultimate stress increases with increasing deformation rate from 10–5 to 1 sec–1 but the initial elasticity modulus remains virtually constant. A characteristic feature of bone tissue is the significant increase or even maximum in specific deformation energy for destruction in the range of deformation rates corresponding to normal physiological conditions for bone function. The deformation diagrams of human bone tissue for the same values of moisture content and deformation rate in tensile testing do not differ from the analogous curves for the bone tissue of cattle. Quantitatively, the ultimate stress

and the initial elasticity modulus E1 are 5–10% and 15–25% greater, respectively, than for cattle bone tissue, while the ultimate deformation eu is virtually the same. An increase in the moisture content of bone tissue leads to a more pronounced dependence of the mechanical parameters on the deformation rate.Translated from Mekhanika Kompozitnykh Materialov, No. 3, pp. 512–517, May–June, 1982. |
