will use this relationship to determine how a bone's cross-sectional shape adapts to changes in
mechanical loading.
Questions:
2-1.(2 points). For a bone whose cross-section is a circular tube with an outer radius of 18 mm and an
inner radius of 12 mm , find the section's polar moment of inertia ( J , in units of mm4).
2-2.(2 points). For the bone geometry in question 3-1, compute the shear stress (, in units of MPa) at
the periosteal surface and the shear stress at the endosteal surface for an applied torque of 20,300
N*mm.
(continued on next page)
2-3.(7 points). Consider a person whose femoral diaphysis has the geometry provided in question 3-1.
The cortical bone in their femur is transversely isotropic and has an elastic modulus E=17GPa and a
shear modulus G=3.3GPa. The person's daily activities result in 10,000 torsional cycles per day with
a torque magnitude of 20,300N*mm. The energy stress in a transversely isotropic material under a
shear stress of magnitude is
?bar()=(EG)12
Based on the modeling rate relationship provided above, find the modeling rates (r, units of
m? day ) on the periosteal and endosteal surfaces of the femoral cross-section. At the endosteal
surface, is bone being resorbed or formed? At the periosteal surface, is bone being resorbed or
formed?
2-4.(7 points). The same person starts a vigorous exercise program and performs an additional 3000
loading cycles per day at a torque of 30,000N*mm(in addition to the 10,000 cycles at 20,300
N*mm). What are the surface modeling rates (r, units of m? day) on the periosteal and endosteal
surfaces now? Will the outer diameter of the bone increase or decrease? Will the endosteal
diameter increase or decrease?
2-5.(7 points). Instead of starting an exercise program, the person cuts out carbs and loses 20% of his
body weight. The femur now experiences 10,000 cycles/day of a torque that is 80% of the previous
20,300N*mm torque. What are the surface modeling rates (r, units of m? day) on the periosteal
and endosteal surfaces now? Will the outer diameter of the bone increase or decrease? Will the
endosteal diameter increase or decrease?
