Hello all!
I am an italian student at the University of Florence....
For my thesis I need to know some coefficient for the female pelvis....like Poisson Ratio,Young Module and Density of uterus, urinary bladder,pelvic bone and rectum.
Someone can help me?Where I can find them?Or someone knows them??
Thank you very much.

I would first look in
I would first look in journal articles, there might be some of the data your looking for in them. Second, if your a student talk to your professor about any contacts he has at a local hospital. A local hospital might allow you to measure or give you the information your asking for. If you look in journal articles first it should show your professor/the hospital that you have done some searching first. Other than those 2 places, i'm not sure where else you can find what you want.
Cortical bone properties
Cortical bone properties
I don't have properties of the pelvi's cancellous bone, neither soft tissue's like uterus and organs.
Taken from: the handbook of biomaterial properties - Jonathan Black and Garth Hastings - Chapman & Hall pages: 3-5.
Mechanical properties of bone
For mechanical properties of bone see Cowin's Handbook of Bone Mechanics.
