## Abstract Cylindrical specimens of bovine subchondral trabecular bone were tested to uniaxial compressive strain levels of 75% to study energy absorption during pore collapse. Stressβstrain curves were characterized by macroscopic yield at about 8% strain followed by a significant horizontal pore

The nanoindentation technique was used to characterize the variation in the elastic modulus and hardness of human lumbar vertebral cortical and trabecular bone. The elastic modulus (and in most cases, the hardness as well) of axially aligned trabeculae cut in the transverse direction was significant
## Abstract New sterilization methods for human bone are likely to affect the mechanical properties of human cancellous grafts. These mechanical properties dictate the shortβ and midβterm results of the orthopedic procedure. The aim of this study was to compare the effects on bone mechanical proper
