Tensile Strength of the Eggshell Membranes
Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2016 The mechanical behaviour of eggshell membranes under tensile loading has been studied. Samples from different bird species (hen, goose and Japanese quail) have been used. Samples were cut out of the membrane in latitudinal direction.

Determinants of eggshell strength in endangered raptors
Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological Genetics and Physiology, 2009 AbstractWe compared eggshell strength in a group of falcon taxa including the peregrine falcon (Falco peregrinus peregrinus), the red shaheen falcon (F. peregrinus babylonicus), the saker falcon (F. cherrug), the gyr falcon (F. rusticolus) and some interspecific and intraspecific hybrids.

The Strength Behaviour of Eggshell Powder Substitution on Soil-lime Stabilization
IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2021 Abstract This study explored the investigation into enhancing soil strength characteristics using eggshell powder (ESP) as a lime substitution on soil-lime stabilization. The ESP was naturally available while using this material, which could reduce cost and other environmental effects.

Non-Destructive Eggshell Strength Assessment Using Hertz Contact Theory-Part II: Implementation and Validation. [PDF]
Foods, 2023 Eggshell strength is a critical quality factor for consumption eggs as it affects the probability of breakage in practice. In this study, a fast and low-cost methodology for the non-destructive determination of eggshell strength is presented. The method utilized a small steel ball to impact the egg and a microphone to analyse the impact characteristics.

Uterine Metabolomic Analysis for the Regulation of Eggshell Calcification in Chickens
Metabolites, 2021 Eggshell quality is economically important for table eggs and functionally indispensable for hatching eggs. During the formation of eggshell in the uterus, organic matrixes in uterine fluid can control and modify the formation of calcified eggshell.
