Elastic Moduli of Avian Eggshell

Elastic Moduli of Avian Eggshell

We analyze 700 freshly-laid eggs from 58 species (22 families and 13 orders) across three orders of magnitude in egg mass. We study the elastic moduli using three metrics: (i) effective Young’s modulus, <i>E</i><sub>FEM</sub>, by a combined experimental and numerical method;...
