Bar charts showing torsional stiffness
and energy to failure for the three synthetic constructs of gapped
short nail (GSN), unicortical short nail (USN) and bicortical long
nail (BLN). A statistically significant difference was observed
for energy to failure between GSN and BLN (p = 0.04). The error
bars depict the standard deviation.
