Mechanical Competence and Bone Quality Develop During Skeletal Growth. [PDF]
Bone fracture risk is influenced by bone quality, which encompasses bone's composition as well as its multiscale organization and architecture. Aging and disease deteriorate bone quality, leading to reduced mechanical properties and higher fracture ...

Fracture resistance via topology optimization
The fracture resistance of structures is optimised using the level-set method. Fracture resistance is assumed to be related to the elastic energy released by a crack propagating in a normal direction from parts of the boundary which are in tension, and is calculated using the virtual crack extension technique.

Buoyancy-driven crack propagation: the limit of large fracture toughness [PDF]
We study steady vertical propagation of a crack filled with buoyant viscous fluid through an elastic solid with large effective fracture toughness. For a crack fed by a constant flux Q, a non-dimensional fracture toughness K=Kc/(3μQm3/2)1/4 describes the

Fracture resistance of veneers in premolars [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objective: The purpose of the study was to compare the fracture resistance of ceramic veneers and composite resin veneers with and without dental preparation. Materials and Methods: Forty freshly extracted mandibular premolars were selected and randomly assigned into four groups (n = 10): Group NPR = no dental preparation and direct ...

Anisotropic fracture resistance of avian eggshell
In order to understand the fracture toughness anisotropy of avian eggshells, we have investigated eggshells of the emu (Dromaius novaehollandiae) whereby the large size (~13 cm × 9.5 cm) enabled the fabrication of beam samples in various orientations. The emu eggshell was found to have a hierarchical microstructure similar to chicken eggshell, with the

Small scale fracture behaviour of multilayer TiN/CrN systems: Assessment of bilayer thickness effects by means of ex-situ tests on FIB-milled micro-cantilevers [PDF]
TiN/CrN multilayered PVD coatings are known to exhibit outstanding micromechanical properties and wear resistance. On the other hand, information on their small scale fracture behaviour is rather scarce.
