Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanical properties and the hierarchical structure of bone
TL;DR: 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.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the dependence of the elasticity and strength of cancellous bone on apparent density.
TL;DR: This paper presents a statistical analysis of the pooled data from a number of previous experiments concerning the dependence of the Young's moduli and strength of cancellous bone tissue upon apparent density and it is concluded that the suggestion of Wolff that compact bone tissue is simply more dense cancellousBone tissue is not an accurate statement.
Journal ArticleDOI
The elastic properties of trabecular and cortical bone tissues are similar: results from two microscopic measurement techniques.
TL;DR: The results suggest that elasticity of trabecular tissue is within the range of that of cortical bone tissue and that nanoindentation as a technique for measurement of Young's modulus in anisotropic bone is not limited.
Journal ArticleDOI
The elastic moduli of human subchondral, trabecular, and cortical bone tissue and the size-dependency of cortical bone modulus
TL;DR: The surface area to volume ratio proved to be a key variable to explain the size-dependency of the modulus and the values decreased as the specimens became smaller, whereas for relatively large specimens, the values remained fairly constant.

Elastic modulus of trabecular bone material
Richard B. Ashman,Jae Y. Rho +1 more
TL;DR: An ultrasonic technique was used to measure both the elastic modulus (Young's modulus) of trabecular bone material and the elasticmodulus of the cancellous structure and on human and bovine specimens the structural elasticModulus was found to be related to the structural (apparent) density raised to the 1.88 power.
