We investigated the kinetics of hydrochloric acid demineralization of human cortical bone with the objective of developing a method of controlled demineralization for structural bone allografts. It is known that the demineralization of cortical bone is a diffusion rate limited process with a sharp a

## Abstract We investigate the effect of specimen geometry on the ultimate tensile strength of cortical bone measured by a tensile test. This article is motivated by the fact that there is no clear consensus in the literature on a suitable specimen shape for cortical bone testing. We consider three
## Abstract The capacity of bone for postβyield energy dissipation decreases with age. To gain information on the causes of such a change, we examined ageβrelated changes in the mechanical behavior of human cadaveric bone as a function of progressive deformation. In this study, tensile specimens fr
Injectable hydrogel and porous sponge formulations of Carbylan TM -GSX, a crosslinked synthetic extracellular matrix (ECM), were used to deliver human demineralized bone matrix (DBM) in a rat femoral defect model. A cortical, full-thickness 5-mm defect was created in two femurs of each rat. Six rats
The tensile stress-strain behavior of bone along its longitudinal axis is modeled by using a simple shear-lag theory, wherein, stresses and strains in a unit cell consisting of an organic matrix reinforced by overlapped mineral platelets are computed. It is assumed that loads are transferred between
