| Abstract Scope |
Bone is a composite material consisting of organic and inorganic components that are organized into hierarchical structures from nanoscale to macroscale to provide biological and mechanical functions. This talk presents the results of an experimental study of the structures and mechanical properties of cortical bone and trabecular bone across multiple length scales. Nanomechanical mapping was performed on cortical bone and trabecular bone, respectively, using atomic force microscopy. The elastic modulus of several microstructures and nanoscale ultrastructure in bone were obtained. The effects of water were examined. The implications of the nanoscale heterogeneity on the strength and toughness of bone are also discussed. |
