C5aR inhibition in the early inflammatory phase does not affect bone regeneration in a model of uneventful fracture healing [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Recent studies were able to demonstrate involvement of the complement cascade in bone biology. Further studies analyzed the role of complement in traumatic injuries and demonstrated negative effects after excessive systemic activation of the ...

The authors explore thermally initiated diazonium chemical surface modification as a means of improving the mechanical performance of milled carbon fibers in epoxy matrix systems at varying loadings by weight. They report significant improvements at <1% w/w loading through examination of flexural and tensile strength and modulus.

On the mechanical properties of novamene: a fully atomistic molecular dynamics and DFT investigation [PDF]
We have investigated through fully atomistic reactive molecular dynamics and DFT simulations, the mechanical properties and fracture dynamics of novamene, a new 3D carbon allotrope structure recently proposed. Our results showed that novamene is an anisotropic structure with relation to tensile deformation.

Generation of a femoral non-union model utilizing phosphate deficient mice [PDF]
Thesis (M.A.)--Boston UniversityFracture non-unions occur when the biological process of fracture healing fails to complete. The events that occur in the fracture healing process of mice are similar to the events that occur in humans. Inorganic phosphate
