Fig. 3

Experimental setup for 3-point bending biomechanical tests. The lower part corresponds to the fixed part of the apparatus. Two 2-millimeter stainless steel rolls are attached to the lower part. Distance between static roll centers is 8 mm. The bone lies on these two rolls. The moving part of the apparatus corresponds to the top roll. The force is measured on this part, as illustrated in the figure. The top 2-millimeter top roll is centered in the setup.
