Elastic Properties Investigation on Random and Ordered ZrO2 Nanotube-Reinforced HA and β-TCP Biocomposites with Finite Element Approach

Table 5

The elastic modulus E (in GPa), shear modulus G (in GPa), and Poisson’s ratio μ of composite HA and β-TCP reinforced with armchair- and zigzag-type ZrNTs. The of ZrNTs is set to be 5, and the doping volume fraction is 5 vol.%.
