Abstract

Bone is a complex anisotropic and heterogeneous material. The structure of bone material is considered to be hierarchical in nature that changes from nano to macro level. Small punch testing, used in the present study, is a very useful technique to analyze the deformational behavior of materials that are difficult to obtain in a sufficient size for conventional mechanical testing. The finite element modeling (FEM) of small punch testing was carried out using ABAQUS code. The material properties of cortical bone for FE simulation were considered to be both isotropic and transversely isotropic in nature. This study shows that isotropic tensile properties of cortical bone are sufficient to predict the deformational behavior of cortical under small punch testing.
