There are many methods used to estimate the undamaged effective (apparent) moduli of cancellous bone as a function of bone volume fraction (BV/TV), mean intercept length (MIL), and other image based average microstructural measures. The MIL and BV/TV are both only functions of the cancellous microstructure and, therefore, cannot directly account for damage induced changes in the intrinsic trabecular hard tissue mechanical properties. Using a nonlinear finite element (FE) approximation for the degradation of effective modulus as a function of applied effective compressive strain, we demonstrate that a measurement of the directional tortuosity of undamaged trabecular hard tissue strongly predicts directional effective modulus (r2 > 0.90) and directional effective modulus degradation (r2 > 0.65). This novel measure of cancellous bone directional tortuosity has the potential for development into an anisotropic approach for calculating effective mechanical properties as a function of trabecular level material damage applicable to understanding how tissue microstructure and intrinsic hard tissue moduli interact to determine cancellous bone quality.

In this study, nanocomposites based on of β-tri calcium phosphate (β-TCP) and 2.5-10 wt% merwinite nanoparticles were prepared and sintered at 1100-1300°c.The mechanical properties were investigated by measuring compressive strength and fracture toughness. Structural properties were evaluated by XRD, TEM and SEM analysis, and the in vitro bioactivity was studied by soaking the samples in simulated body fluid (SBF). The mechanical strength of the sintered samples wereincreased, by increasing the amount of merwinite phase up to 5 wt%, whereas it decreased when the samples were sintered at 1100 and 1200°c. Nanostructured calcium phosphate layer was formed on the surfaces of the nanocomposites within 1 day immersion in simulated body fluid. Because of appropriate mechanical properties the composite is suggested to be used as substitute for hard tissue.

The controlled development of texture microstructure in ceramics is one effective way to improve their properties, such as electrical, mechanical properties and biocompatibility. A bioceramics with oriented crystal structure has attracted great interest. In bone reparations, Hydroxyapatite (HAp)-based biomaterials were frequently used. And HAp is the main mineral constituent of the hard tissue of human bodies, which occurs with a hexagonal crystal. A HAp crystal turns out to have different surface properties in a- (or b-) plane and c-plane. In this regard, to get highly oriented HAp is very important before using HAp as a biomaterial. And the crystal orientated HAp is useful not only as biomaterials but also as protein absorbents. In this research, two different kinds of HAp-based biomaterial with oriented structure (HAp bioceramics and HAp-coated titanium composite) were studied.

During recent years, there have been efforts in developing nanocrystalline bioceramics, to enhance their mechanical and biological properties for use in hard tissue engineering applications. In this work, we study the effects of some sintering additive nanopowders dopants on the properties of the sintered HA structures. Calculated quantities of silica nanopowders are incorporate as dopants into dried HA nanopowder. The mixing powders are uniaxially compacted and then sintered at 1200°C by rate-controlled sintering method in air. Compositional, microstructural, morphological and mechanical characterizations are carried out on sintered HA samples.

Flexible bioelectronics have promising applications in electronic skin, wearable devices, and biomedical electronics etc. Hydrogels have unique advantages for bioelectronics due to the tissue-like mechanical properties and excellent biocompatibility. Particularly,...


The struggle in osteosynthesis continues with the search for more biocompatible materials to replace metallic scaffolds. Poly(L-lactic) acid (PLLA), a biopolymer, was processed via melt-blending technique by blending chitosan and Ti-6Al-2Sn-2Mo-2Cr-0.25Si powders with it in varying compositions at 290 oC. The microhardness values, compressive moduli and fracture toughness of the reinforced PLLA improved significantly while the resulting composites were found to be less tough than the unreinforced PLLA. Compressive moduli obtained were much lower than the modulus of cortical bone. They were, however, mechanically compatible with the properties of cancellous bone.
