In the context of osteoporosis, bone quality—which encompasses trabecular and cortical
micro-architecture, mass, and tissue mechanical & compositional properties—plays an …

Nanoindentation has recently emerged as a powerful tool for measuring nano-and
microscale mechanical properties in tissues and other biomaterials. This technique has …

Mechanical and morphological studies of aligned nanofibrous meshes of poly (ε-
caprolactone)(PCL) fabricated by electrospinning at different collector rotation speeds (0 …

The Johnson–Kendall–Roberts (JKR) theory of elastic contact, extended to take viscoelastic
effects into account, is used to evaluate work of adhesion and modulus of elastomeric films …

Abstract 200 MHz acoustic impedance maps and site-matched synchrotron radiation micro
computed tomography (SR-μCT) maps of tissue degree of mineralization of bone (DMB) …

Nanoindentation was used to characterize the intrinsic mechanical properties of bone tissue
from eight (8) children with type III Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI). The bone samples were …

A two-level micromechanical model of cortical bone based on a generalized self-consistent
method was developed to take into consideration the transversely isotropic elasticity of many …

The purpose of this study was to quantify differences in indentation modulus and
microhardness between labeled osteons identified by epifluorescent microscopy and …

This experimental study on laser-textured implants aimed to evaluate periimplant bone
elasticity and ultimate stress of the bone–implant interface in a rabbit femur model. After …

This study was designed to test the hypothesis that the mechanical properties of a trabecular
bone substitute can be enhanced through in vitro tissue formation. Our specific objectives …
