Bone tissue is a composite material composed of hydroxyapatite (HAp) and collagen. Because HAp in bone tissue is a crystal structure, the X-ray diffraction method is available to measure the lattice strain of HAp. A relationship between macroscopic bone tissue strain and lattice strain of HAp in a bone specimen was investigated using X-ray strain measurement under tensile loading. The strip specimens were cut from cortical bone in a shaft of bovine femur. As a result, lattice strains of HAp showed lower value than the bone tissue strain. The strain ratio of the HAp crystals to the bone tissue was formulated with an elastic modulus and volume fraction of HAp in the bone tissue.
