Bending of Bone - Part 4 - Equipment Preparation 3-Point Bending Fixture

Bending (or flexure) tests characterize the behavior of a sample with load applied perpendicular to its longitudinal axis. This undergraduate biomechanics class laboratory module consists of assessing mechanical properties of both wood stick and dry rat bone. Throughout this laboratory, each team will: test samples in 3-point bending; perform a measurement of the tester compliance; extract data from load-displacement curves to obtain maximum bending force and stiffness, elastic modulus in bending and the maximum flexural strength while considering sample geometry; understand the effect of the mechanical setup compliance on a mechanical test; learn how the structure of bone influence its mechanical properties.
