Influence of loading condition and anatomical location on human cortical bone linear micro-cracks

Human cortical bone fracture toughness depends on the anatomical locations under quasi-static loading. Recent results also showed that under fall-like loading, cortical bone fracture toughness is similar at different anatomical locations in the same donor. While cortical bone toughening mechanisms a...
