Calculate the impacts on size (diameter) and mass/unit length of replacing a natural bone in the leg with one made of steel, aluminum, or titanium. Use compressive strengths and densities provided in class for bone, steel, and aluminum. Use r=0.00443 kg/cm3, and s=848 MPa for titanium. Assume the bone is hollow with outside diameter 2.5 cm and inside diameter 3 cm. Maintain the same inside diameter. HINT: first calculate the load on the bone..

- A new high stiffness plastic material has a length of 19.7 inches and a thickness of 3 mm and is being considered for use as a bone fixation plate. When subjected to a tensile load of 10000 N, the material stretches to a length of 19.88 inches. Please find the width of this material, which has a modulus of 4 GPa.arrow_forwardWhen lifting weights, it turns out the amount of force you need to lift them doesn't necessarily match the dumbbell's weight — in other words, if an object weighs 100 N, the amount of force you actually need to apply is probably not 100 N. Observe the diagram below: You can think of the bones in your arms as rods that rotate about an axis of rotation (your elbow) depending on the magnitude, direction and position of the forces being applied. So in order for your arm to lift the weight, the torque exerted by the bicep should be greater than or equal to the torques being applied by the bones' center of mass and the weight your hand is holding. Notice how the bicep is connected to the arm bone (the radius) at a certain distance from the joint, and applies an upwards tension force (as the bicep contracts in order to lift objects). Show how the magnitude of the tension force exerted by the biceps muscle can differ greatly from the magnitude of the weight.arrow_forwardThe tensile modulus of a 0°, 90°, and 45° graphite/epoxy ply is measured as follows to give E₁ = 26.25 Msi, E2 = 1.494 Msi, Ex = 2.427 Msi for the 45° ply, respectively. 1. What is the value Ex for a 30° ply? 2. Can you calculate the values of v12 and G12 from the previously measured three values of elastic moduli?arrow_forward
