Bone collagen network integrity and transverse fracture toughness of human cortical bone
Willett, Thomas L.; Dapaah, Daniel Y.; Uppuganti, Sasidhar; Granke, Mathilde; Nyman, Jeffry S. (Elsevier, 2019-03-01)Greater understanding of the determinants of skeletal fragility is highly sought due to the great burden that bone affecting diseases and fractures have on economies, societies and health care systems. Being a complex, ... -
Modelling the micro-damage process zone during cortical bone fracture
Dapaah, Daniel; Badaoui, Raphael; Bahmani, Aram; Montesano, John; Willett, Thomas (Elsevier, 2020-02-01)Cortical bone employs intrinsic toughening mechanisms to delay crack growth initiation and propagation hence increasing its fracture toughness. Computational models of the bone fracture process though do not explicitly ...
