Abstract

Micro-Mechanical properties of bone have been extensively observed in this study. It has also been attempted to correlate it with the microstructural aspects. The load deformation pattern of human cortical bone (both male and female) under uniaxial compressive and tensile loading was studied. The density and porosity of the whole femur as well as different parts of it was also studied. Microstructure of bone, mainly the osteon structure, its distribution and its deformation under different stress fields have been thoroughly studied with the help of Scanning electron microscopy and reported here.
