Assume that Young's modulus for bone is 1.5x10^10 N/m2 and that a bone will fracture if more than 1.5x10^8 N/m2 is exerted. (a) What is the maximum force that can be exerted on the femur bone in the leg if it has a minimum effective diameter of 2.50 cm? (b) If a force of this magnitude is applied compressively, by how much does the 25.0-cm-long-bone shorten?
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..
Besides using strain gauges, name and describe two  alternative ways of measuring strains or deformations. List two   benefits of using each strain measuring system, compared to   strain gauges.
