rowlem 2. The engineering stress-strain curve for a collagen fiber bundle from which a human tendon is composed is shown in the following diagram (k si is psix 103). A segment of Achilles tendon has a length of 6.5 inch and an approximate cross-sectional area of 0.230in2. The fiber bundle fully recovers to its original length when it is stretched up to a limiting strain of 0.05inin. Beyond that limiting strain, the fiber bundle does not fully recover and deformation is not fully elastic.
a) determine the modulus of elasticity of the tendon (IDT/In or psi)
b) fibers of the tendon tissue can be elongated up to a strain of 0.05 in./in. Without a permeabet shape distrotion. Determine the modulus of resilence of the tendon. (Psi)
