The shear modulus can be determined using the relation between shear modulus, stiffness, length and polar moment of inertia outlined in the theory talk, and in your textbooks. Note that due to the approximations made regarding the shape of the bone, this value should be thought of as only an approximation. Note also that one might expect G to vary from one sample to the next due to natural variations between individual animals.
