Abstract
Young’s modulus needed for realizing a numerical analysis model with finite elements dedicated to studying static strain on an artificial bone, made out of composite material (polyester resin reinforced with fiber glass) is determined, as well as Young’s dynamics modulus needed for analysis through numerical simulation of dynamic strain applied to the same structural element (vibrations, shock). Both in, static and dynamic conditions, two methods are utilized in measuring the materials elastic characteristics. Keywords: Young’s modulus, artificial bone, composite material, numerical simulation
