Hi everybody
I have to construct a computer model of a human joint, which will then undergo finite element analysis testing. I have been instructed to construct the model out of first Model board then Tooling board so that there results can be analysed, however before I can construct and apply these materials, I must first know there properties such as there Young’s modulus, etc before they can be inputted into the model.
However I am having grate difficulty finding any information about these two materials and I would be extremely thankful if anyone could enlighten me with any information relating to these two materials or direct to a location where I could possibly acquire the relevant information (if at all they exist).
Thankyou:
