Figure 132 Stress-Strain Relation for Compact Bone

question 15

Essay

Figure 13.2 Stress-strain relation for compact bone. The graph includes both tensile stress (the bone is stretched) and compressive stress (the bone is compressed).
-Fig. 13.2 shows the stress-strain curve for compact bone. In addition to the coordinate system origin (0,0), the graph includes four points, (i) to (iv), along the curve. Describe the response of the compact bone in each interval, that is, whether it is elastic or not fully elastic.
