Energy dissipation of osteopontin at a HAp mineral interface: Implications for bone biomechanics

Mahdi Tavakol et al.

Summary: This study investigated the role of calcium ions on energy dissipation at the interface between osteopontin (OPN) and hydroxyapatite (HAp). It found that calcium ions greatly influenced the structure and energy dissipation performance of OPN proteins. Under small deformation, the compact OPN structure facilitated greater energy dissipation through mechanisms mediated by surface-bound calcium and sacrificial bond breaking. At larger deformation, the compact structure also enabled OPN to dissipate higher energy. Phosphorylation of OPN also played an important role in energy dissipation.

Microtensile properties and failure mechanisms of cortical bone at the lamellar level

Daniele Casari et al.

Summary: New experiments on dry ovine bone discovered that microtensile strength at the scale of a single lamella is greater than at the macroscopic level, exhibiting brittleness and strength anisotropy. Analysis suggests that bone strength at the lamellar level is remarkably tolerant to variations of fibril orientation.

Effect of geometrical structure variations on the viscoelastic and anisotropic behaviour of cortical bone using multi-scale finite element modelling

Ampaiphan Atthapreyangkul et al.

Summary: Multi-scale finite element analysis was conducted to investigate the impact of geometrical changes on the mechanical properties of cortical bone at different structural scales. The study incorporated statistical approaches and sensitivity analyses, revealing an exponential correlation between mineral volume fraction and effective stiffness constants at each length scale. Fast and slow response relaxation behavior of cortical bone was found to be influenced by bone's structural anisotropy and global mineral volume fraction variations between length scales.

Combining polarized Raman spectroscopy and micropillar compression to study microscale structure-property relationships in mineralized tissues

Tatiana Kochetkova et al.

Summary: This study investigated the relationship between the microscale compressive mechanical properties of bone and mineralized collagen fibril orientation, finding a strong dependence of compressive micromechanical properties on fibril orientation with high anisotropy. It also revealed a transition from softening to hardening behavior at approximately 50 degrees. The combination of methods used provides a reliable way to determine structure-property relationships at the microscale, offering insights into bone quality assessment.

Interfacial bonding between mineral platelets in bone and its effect on mechanical properties of bone

Siyuan Pang et al.

Summary: Bone is a composite material composed of apatite mineral, collagen fibrils, non-collagenous proteins, and other organic species. The interface between mineral lamellae has been shown to affect the mechanical properties of bone. The presence of an organic glue between mineral lamellae, which survives treatment with ethylenediamine but not with sodium hypochlorite, contributes to the stiffness, strength, and energy absorption of bone.

Modeling of bending and torsional stiffnesses of bone at sub-microscale: Effect of curved mineral lamellae

Ashraf Idkaidek et al.

Summary: Recent studies have shown that mineral lamellae in human cortical bone form arcuate multi-radius patterns around collagen fibrils, which increase the bending and torsional stiffness of bone. This research provides new insights into the structure-property relations of bone ultrastructure.

Finite element analysis of the impact of bone nanostructure on its piezoelectric response

Salil Pai et al.

Summary: The piezoelectric response of bone at the submicron scale was analyzed using the finite element method, with a new algorithm proposed to virtually reconstruct bone nanostructures. The study found that the piezoelectric response showed a linear variation with fibrils volume fraction when fibrils were aligned, while more oscillations were observed in results when fibrils were misaligned, with negligible differences in lateral compression and shear loadings. However, under longitudinal compression, the electric field associated with misaligned fibrils was notably higher than that of aligned fibrils for the same volume fraction.
