In situ nanomechanical investigations of bone

Mineralized collagen fibrils(MCFs)are the fundamental building blocks that contribute to the extraordinary mechanical behaviour of bone. Despite its importance in defining bone mechanics, especially the high resistance to fracture recorded in bone tissue, MCFs have yet to be mechanically tested and...
