... (FE) models before uniaxial tensile fatigue testing. Acoustic emission (AE) monitoring was used to locate damage events in real time during tensile fatigue tests and to facilitate a comparison with the damage predicted in FE simulations of the same tests. By tracking both acoustic emissions...

... analogue cortical bone material may exhibit better performance in fracture and longer fatigue lives than similar models made of third-generation analogue cortical bone material. Further fatigue testing of the new composite material in clinically relevant use of bone models is still required...

... of the mantle. The fatigue process has been simulated computationally using a finite element/continuum damage mechanics (FE/CDM) method and used as a preclinical testing tool, but has not considered the effects of porosity. In this study, experimental tensile and four-point bend fatigue tests were performed...

...T. L. A. Moore; F. J. O’Brien; L. J. Gibson In both cortical and trabecular bone loaded in fatigue, the stress-strain loops translate along the strain axis. Previous studies have suggested that this translation is the result of creep associated with the mean stress applied in the fatigue test...
