The Structure and Anisotropic Mechanical Properties of Bone
IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, 1984Compact bone can be modeled as a complex hierarchical composite interrelating both structure and material properties on four levels of structural organization: molecular, ultrastructural, microscopic, and macroscopic.

Mechanical Properties of the Posterolateral Structures of the Knee
The American Journal of Sports Medicine, 2005Background The individual biomechanical strength properties of the fibular collateral ligament, popliteofibular ligament, and popliteus tendon have not been well elucidated by previous studies. To define the necessary strength requirements for a posterolateral knee reconstruction, these properties for the main ...

Mechanical structure–property relationship of aerogels
Journal of Non-Crystalline Solids, 2000The elastic moduli (E) of high-porosity materials (such as aerogels) exhibit power-law scaling with their relative densities (rho), E proportional to rho (m)(,) where 3 less than or equal to m less than or equal to 4, but the physics responsible for this behavior is not well-understood, Computer models of aerogels were generated by diffusion-limited ...

Structural and Mechanical Properties of Platinum Carbide
Inorganic Chemistry, 2014Platinum carbide (PtC) was synthesized under extreme conditions and considered as a potential candidate for superhard materials. However, the unsettled issue concerning the structural identification has impeded the full understanding of its physical and chemical properties.

Mechanical properties of electrospun fibrinogen structures
Acta Biomaterialia, 2006Fibrin and fibrinogen have a well-established track record in tissue engineering due to their innate ability to induce improved cellular interaction and subsequent scaffold remodeling compared to synthetic scaffolds. Use of fibrinogen as a primary scaffold component, however, has been limited by traditional processing techniques that render scaffolds ...

Structural, Mechanical, and Superconducting Properties of Clathrates
2010Clathrates are superhard cagelike structures with sp3 bonding that have been up to now synthesized for silicon. There is however some evidence of a carbon based counterpart in meteorites. If realized, carbon clathrates could on the one hand provide a material harder than diamond and on the other hand offer the possibility for selective doping and ...

Structure and mechanical properties of crab exoskeletons
Acta Biomaterialia, 2008The structure and mechanical properties of the exoskeleton (cuticle) of the sheep crab (Loxorhynchus grandis) were investigated. The crab exoskeleton is a natural composite consisting of highly mineralized chitin-protein fibers arranged in a twisted plywood or Bouligand pattern.

Molecular structural mechanics model for the mechanical properties of microtubules
Biomechanics and Modeling in Mechanobiology, 2014The aim of this paper was to develop a structural mechanics (SM) model for the microtubules (MTs) in cells. The technique enables one to study the configuration effect on the mechanical properties of MTs and enjoys greatly improved computational efficiency as compared with molecular dynamics simulations.

Structural and Mechanical Properties of Mandibular Condylar Bone
Journal of Dental Research, 2006The trabecular bone of the mandibular condyle is structurally anisotropic and heterogeneous. We hypothesized that its apparent elastic moduli are also anisotropic and heterogeneous, and depend on trabecular density and orientation. Eleven condyles were scanned with a micro-CT system.

Structure and Mechanical Properties of Hydroxypropylated Starch Films
Biomacromolecules, 2007Films of acid-hydrolyzed hydroxypropylated pea starch with average molecular weight M w ranging from 3.3 x 10 (4) g/mol to 1.6 x 10 (6) g/mol were prepared from 25% (w/w) solution by casting. The structure of the films was investigated by means X-ray diffraction and calorimetry, evidencing a B-type crystalline structure.
