Comparison of Static Testing per ASTM F2077 Using a Constrained, Semi-Constrained, and Unconstrained Test Setup

Static Compressive Shear Test

Project Overview

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
To evaluate and determine whether the hypothesis is true
Test a mock Interbody fusion device in static axial compression testing, static compressive shear testing and static torsion testing in a constrained test setup, a semi-constrained test setup and an unconstrained test setup per ASTM F2077.
NULL HYPOTHESIS
There is no difference between the mechanical performance of static axial compression testing, compressive shear testing and torsion testing in a constrained test setup, a semi-constrained test setup and unconstrained test setup per ASTM F2077.
