## Abstract We investigate the effect of specimen geometry on the ultimate tensile strength of cortical bone measured by a tensile test. This article is motivated by the fact that there is no clear consensus in the literature on a suitable specimen shape for cortical bone testing. We consider three
The study comprised seven groups of intact rats killed at 9, 12, 15, and 24 months of age, and three groups of rats castrated at the age of 9 months and killed together with the intact rats 3, 6, and 15 months after castration. The composition, dimension, and mechanical properties of intact bone as
