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:

Dynamic mechanical properties of cortical bone: The effect of mineral content
Ting Wang,Zude Feng +1 more
TL;DR: Analysis of viscoelasticity, microstructure and denaturation temperature of bone was characterized by dynamic mechanical thermal analyzer (DMTA), FTIR spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), respectively and revealed that EDTA treatment had a negligible effect on the microst structure of the collagen fibers.

Calcium Phosphate-Based Composite Coating by Micro-Arc Oxidation (MAO) for Biomedical Application: A Review
TL;DR: In this article, the Ca-P-based composites have attracted great attention in the scientific community over the last decade for the development of biomedical applications, such as biomedical applications.

The multiscale structural and mechanical effects of mouse supraspinatus muscle unloading on the mature enthesis.
Alix C. Deymier,Andrea G. Schwartz,Zhounghou Cai,Tyrone L. Daulton,Jill D. Pasteris,Guy M. Genin,Stavros Thomopoulos +6 more
TL;DR: The effects of enthesis unloading in adult mice shoulders are elucidated, for the first time, showing that unloading significantly increased the risk and extent of mechanical failure and was associated with structural changes across hierarchical scales.

Biomedical Porous Shape Memory Alloys for Hard-Tissue Replacement Materials
Bin Yuan,Min Zhu,Chi Yuen Chung +2 more
TL;DR: It is believed that porous SMAs with optimal porous structure and a bioactive surface layer are the most competitive candidate for short-term and long-term hard-tissue replacement materials.

Porous poly(vinyl alcohol)/sepiolite bone scaffolds: Preparation, structure and mechanical properties
TL;DR: Porous polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/sepiolite nanocomposite scaffolds containing 0-10% sepiolite were obtained by freeze-drying and thermally crosslinked with poly(arylic acid) as mentioned in this paper.

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.

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.

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.
