Table 2. Summary of results. $d_o^{range}$ is the outer diameter range, $E_f^{ave}$ is the average flexural modulus, and S.D. is the standard deviation of the results.

This value of the average flexural modulus agrees very well with the value obtained using a complimentary static bending method recently reported by the authors [1]. The flax density used for the computation is based on measured values found in the literature [2].

For completeness, the corrected figure 10 is as follows:
