Abstract
- The mechanical properties of the human kidney were investigated.
- The kidney of 20 male cadavers were excised and subjected to the mechanical loading.
- The elastic modulus and failure stress of the human kidney were calculated.
- Results showed the axial elastic modulus and failure stress of 180.32 and 24.46 kPa.
- Results showed the transversal elastic modulus and failure stress of 95.64 and 31.00 kPa.
