## Abstract Stress fractures are overuse injuries of bone that affect elite athletes and military recruits. One response of cortical bone to stress fracture is to lay down periosteal callus. The objectives of this study were to determine if material properties are different among bones with differe

โฆ Synopsis
The fracture stress and material property degra-cally increased static tests to determine if loading/unloading dation of bovine cortical bone specimens were investigated has an effect on the damage mechanism in bone. It was found experimentally under accelerated cyclic tensile stress testing.
that fracture stress of the bone increases due to accelerated The fracture stress of a typical specimen was found from stress cycling whereas the modulus decreases in a logaritha static tensile test, and the cyclic loading/unloading was mic fashion with increasing cyclic stress.

The purpose of this paper was to investigate the sensitivity of the structural responses and bone fractures of the ribs to mesh density, cortical thickness, and material properties so as to provide guidelines for the development of finite element (FE) thorax models used in impact biomechanics. Subje
