a Prepared bone strips mounted on the fabricated four-point bending jigs (aluminum holders and tungsten carbide pins) mounted on an Instron 8511.20 machine. The experiments were displacement-controlled at 10 Hz using a sinusoidal function with a maximum strain of 0.5% for 5 s. b Schematics stress-time curve shown for three loading cycles. c Schematics stress-strain curve which only the linear portion of it was acquired in this study for calculating Young’s modulus (E)
