Mechanical properties and the hierarchical structure of bone
TLDR
Further investigations of mechanical properties at the "materials level", in addition to the studies at the 'structural level' are needed to fill the gap in present knowledge and to achieve a complete understanding of the mechanical properties of bone.About:

Improved bioactivity of selective laser melting titanium: Surface modification with micro-/nano-textured hierarchical topography and bone regeneration performance evaluation.
TL;DR: The addition of nano-porous features on the microrough SLM titanium surface is effective in improving the bioactivity and bone regeneration performance, in which the ECM-like nanonet with a disorderly arranged biomimetic feature is suggested to be more efficient than nanotubes.

Multiple factor interactions in biomimetic mineralization of electrospun scaffolds
Parthasarathy Madurantakam,Isaac A. Rodriguez,Christopher P. Cost,Ramakrishnan Viswanathan,David G. Simpson,Matthew J. Beckman,Peter C. Moon,Gary L. Bowlin +7 more
TL;DR: A novel two step strategy to increase overall mineral content of electrospun scaffolds is introduced and employs multiple factor interaction as a statistic to identify the combination of factors that yields maximal scaffold mineralization.

Poisson ratio can play a crucial role in mechanical properties of biocomposites
Bin Liu,Lixian Zhang,Huajian Gao +2 more
TL;DR: Analytical models and complementary finite element (FEM) calculations are developed to evaluate the influence of Poisson ratio on the mechanical properties of biocomposites with staggered mineral platelets in parallel alignment in a soft protein matrix and it is concluded that the Poisson ratios can play a crucial role.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inspiration from Nature's body armours – A review of biological and bioinspired composites
TL;DR: In this paper, a systematic review is conducted to identify the structural-mechanical characteristics of selected biological armour systems such as nacre from mollusc shells, conch shells and fish scaled skin.

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
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
The mechanical behaviour of cancellous bone
TL;DR: The results of this previous study are applied to cancellous bone in an attempt to further understand its mechanical behaviour and the results agree reasonably well with experimental data available in the literature.

Elastic properties of human cortical and trabecular lamellar bone measured by nanoindentation
TL;DR: An experimental investigation was undertaken to measure the intrinsic elastic properties of several of the microstructural components of human vertebral trabecular bone and tibial cortical bone by the nanoindentation method, and differences in the measured moduli are statistically significant.
