A study of the adaptation of the mechanical properties of bone material using Raman spectroscopy
Bone is a composite material comprising an organic collagen scaffold surrounded by mineral platelets. The weight ratio of mineral to collagen is not constant, and hence the mechanical properties of the material can vary. In this thesis, the analytical technique Raman spectroscopy (which uses inelast...
