We can replace many tissues with prosthetics
eg . Skin
bone
lens in eyes
valve in hearts
cartilidge
some muscles eg heart
.
nerves (wiring)
When replacing mechanical tissues (movement /support) it is important ,
to
match the PROPERTIES of the original tissue with the replacement's.
Stiffness is of limited use as it is specific to a sample ,
so
that
generic property material
eg DENSITY
we need a
of a .
tells us how a material behaves when a force is applied
