Show Abstract
In this work, the results of applying nonlinear dynamics to study progressive material fatigue in human bone are described. Material nonlinear dynamical response has been shown to be associated with mechanical damage. The progressive mechanical damage experiments were conducted in cortical bone extracted from a human femur. After each damage step, the material dynamical nonlinear response was measured by applying wave modulation and extracting a nonlinear parameter proportional to the sideband amplitude. The nonlinear parameter increases rapidly with damage step, indicating increased damage after the initial cycling procedure, while the quasistatic stiffness taken from the cycling experiments shows little change.
