TLDR
Although bone densitometry is often used as a surrogate to evaluate bone fragility, direct biomechanical testing of bone undoubtedly provides more information about mechanical integrity.About:

Skeletal Tissue Mechanics
TL;DR: This poster presents a probabilistic procedure for estimating the mechanical properties of bone based on known mechanisms, including compressive forces, compressive strength, and the compressive properties of Bone.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of collagen in bone strength.
TL;DR: The role of the crosslinking process of collagen in bone strength, clinical disorders associated with bone collagen abnormalities and bone fragility, such as osteogenesis imperfecta and osteoporosis, are described.

TL;DR: The biphasic model of GH action in bone remodeling is proposed, based on findings in GHD adults, and it appears that the "transition point" occurs after approximately 6 months and that a net increase of bone mass will be seen after 12-18 months of GH treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Suppressed bone turnover by bisphosphonates increases microdamage accumulation and reduces some biomechanical properties in dog rib
TL;DR: Regression analysis showed a significant nonlinear relationship between suppressed intracortical bone remodeling and microdamage accumulation as well as a significant linear relationship between micro damage accumulation and reduced toughness.

Bone strength and its determinants
P. Ammann,R. Rizzoli +1 more
TL;DR: The careful investigation of all the determinants of bone strength (bone tissue included) should be considered in the pathophysiology of osteoporosis and in the mechanisms of action of antiosteoporotic drugs.

Stress Waves in Solids
TL;DR: A large and growing number of original papers on both the experimental and the theoretical aspects of stress wave propagation is appearing in the scientific literature, and two international conferences solely concerned with the subject have been held during the last five years as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
The compressive behavior of bone as a two-phase porous structure.
Dennis R. Carter,Wilson C. Hayes +1 more
TL;DR: These power relationships, which were shown to hold for all bone in the skeleton, allow meaningful predictions of bone tissue strength and stiffness based on in vivo density measurements.
Journal ArticleDOI
The elastic and ultimate properties of compact bone tissue
TL;DR: The use of a tranversely isotropic model is tested for the elastic behavior of bovine and human bone and the five independent constants of this model are determined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Young's modulus of trabecular and cortical bone material: ultrasonic and microtensile measurements.
TL;DR: The results suggest that when considered mechanically, cortical and trabecular bone are not the same material.
Journal ArticleDOI
A continuous wave technique for the measurement of the elastic properties of cortical bone
TL;DR: The orthotropic elastic coefficients and the variation of these coefficients are presented as a function of anatomical position and the elastic properties of human and canine cortical femora are presented here.
