Quasi-static and dynamic behaviour of the bone structures with fine geometric and materials modelling aspects

The principle aim of this study is to highlight the influence of velocity on mechanical responses of cortical bones. Quasi-static tests are performed on cubic samples from bovine femurs in order to highlight the anisotropic effect of cortical structure. Thanks to the Hopkinson bars technique, a set...
