Mammalian cortical bone in tension is non-Haversian
Cortical bone, found in the central part of long bones like femur, is known to adapt to local mechanical stresses. This adaptation has been linked exclusively with Haversian remodelling involving bone resorption and formation of secondary osteons. Compared to primary/plexiform bone, the Haversian bone has lower stiffness, fatigue strength and fracture toughness, raising the question why nature ...
متن کاملHaversian cortical bone model with many radial microcracks: an elastic analytic solution.
In this study, the fracture micromechanics of Haversian cortical bone has been considered. To this effect, a two-dimensional micromechanical fibre-ceramic matrix composite tissue materials model has been presented. The interstitial tissue was modeled as a matrix and the osteon was modeled as a fibre, followed by the application of linear elastic fracture mechanics theory. The solution for edge ...
متن کاملThe utility of osteon shape and circularity for differentiating human and non-human Haversian bone.
Distinguishing human from non-human bone fragments is usually accomplished by observation of gross morphology. When macroscopic analysis is insufficient, histological approaches can be applied. Microscopic features, like plexiform bone or osteon banding, are characteristic of non-humans. In the absence of such features, distinguishing Haversian bone as either human or non-human proves problemat...
متن کاملMicromechanically based poroelastic modeling of fluid flow in Haversian bone.
To explore the hypothesis that load-induced fluid flow in bone is a mechano-transduction mechanism in bone adaptation, unit cell micro-mechanical techniques are used to relate the microstructure of Haversian cortical bone to its effective poroelastic properties. Computational poroelastic models are then applied to compute in vitro Haversian fluid flows in a prismatic specimen of cortical bone d...
متن کاملAutomatic Detection of Cortical Bone’s Haversian Osteonal Boundaries
This work aims to automatically detect cement lines in decalcified cortical bone sections stained with H&E. Employed is a methodology developed previously by the authors and proven to successfully count and disambiguate the micro-architectural features (namely Haversian canals, canaliculi, and osteocyte lacunae) present in the secondary osteons/Haversian system (osteon) of cortical bone. This m...
