Title: Bone Mechanics Objectives:- -To become familiar with LabView software and National Instruments‚ in order to record and observe the strain signals from chicken bone and an aluminum rod. Background: Data acquisition is the use of computer software connected to a measuring device. Signals and measurements are recorded‚ which is converted into a digital signal only understood by a computer. Data is recorded at a certain speed that is processed in real time‚ and can be immediately interpreted
