Anisotropy of Nonelastic Flow in Bone

Abstract
The microdeformation characteristics of 0.010‐in.‐diam compact bone filaments have been measured under torsional loading conditions. The effects of prestrain, recovery, cyclic loading, and specimen orientation on the nature and extent of the nonelastic flow were determined. Correlations are considered between the mechanical behavior and the composite structure of compact bone.
