Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Laser powder‐bed fusion (L‐PBF) can produce dense WE43 magnesium alloy parts, but their mechanical properties are limited by a nonhomogeneous microstructure. This study investigates the effects of varying direct aging (T5) and artificial age‐hardening (T6) conditions on microstructure and strength. Optimized T6 treatment significantly improves strength

The changing rule of human bone density with aging based on a novel definition and mensuration of bone density with computed tomography [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Osteoporosis and fragility fractures have emerged as major public health concerns in an aging population. However, measuring age-related changes in bone density using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry has limited personalized risk assessment due to susceptibility to interference from various factors.

From Nature to Engineering: Mortar Volume and Interfacial Mechanics in Bioinspired Ceramics
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Inspired by natural armors like nacre, this study explores how varying the volume fraction of the soft mortar layer impacts the interfacial strength and toughness of bioinspired ceramics. Experimental and computational analysis reveals that higher mortar volumes increase energy dissipation but reduce interfacial stiffness, offering insights for ...

Influence of trabecular microstructure and cortical index on the complexity of proximal humeral fractures [PDF]
, 2018 Objectives: Poor bone quality increases the susceptibility to fractures of the proximal humerus. It is unclear whether local trabecular and cortical measures influence the severity of fracture patterns.

Stress fractures in 2011: practical approach [PDF]
, 2012 Stress fractures occur when excessive loads are applied to a bone whose mechanical strength is normal. Bone insufficiency fractures, in contrast, are due to physiological loads applied to bone of inadequate mechanical strength [1]. This contradistinction

Residual Stress States in Microstructurally Graded PBF–LB/M Austenitic Steel Components
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This study examines microstructurally graded 316L rectangular tube profiles fabricated via PBF–LB/M using a dual‐laser system. A 1 kW top‐hat and a 400 W Gaussian laser create distinct grain sizes and crystallographic texture. Mechanical properties are linked to microstructural evolution driven by processing conditions.

Recent Developments in Osteogenesis Imperfecta [PDF]
, 2015 Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is an uncommon genetic bone disease associated with brittle bones and fractures in children and adults. Although OI is most commonly associated with mutations of the genes for type I collagen, many other genes (some ...

Optimum Design of Printable Tunable Stiffness Metamaterial for Bone Healing [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 A tunable stiffness bone rod was designed, optimized, and 3D printed to address the common shortcomings of existing bone rods in the healing of long fractured bones. The common deficiencies of existing bone fixations are high stiffness, thereby negligible flexibility in deformation for best bone growth results, and stress-shielding effect.
