This article extensively explores various bio-inspired techniques of interfacial strengthening.
Bio-inspired composites fabricated by emulating five natural materials: nacre, byssus thread …

Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), a brittle bone disease, is known to result in severe bone
fragility. However, its ultrastructural origins are still poorly understood. In this study, we …

Inspired by design motifs driving the balanced combination of rigidity, strength, and
toughness in biological materials, this paper presents 3D computational modeling and …

At the molecular scale, bone is mainly constituted of type-I collagen, hydroxyapatite, and
water. Different fractions of these constituents compose different composite materials that …

Bones are responsible for body support, structure, motion, and several other functions that
enable and facilitate life for many different animal species. They exhibit a complex network …

Bioinspired nanocomposites aim to mimic the structure of natural materials. These materials
exhibit excellent mechanical properties such as high strength, toughness, and stiffness …

The influence of joint degeneration on the biomechanical properties of calcified cartilage
