Bone , 06/12/09
Chan KS et al. - The authors show that age-related embrittlement of bone fracture is associated with higher near-tip strains by lamellar shear and crack defection at lamellar interfaces in the young bone and their absence in the old bone. The different near-tip deformation behaviors may be associated with the presence of Si and Zn in the young bone but more Ca and P and the lack of Si and Zn in the old bone.
