- Application of Fracture Mechanics Concepts to Hierarchical Biomechanics of Bone and Bone-like Materials (2006, background): “For example, sea shells have 2 to 3 levels of lamellar structure (Currey, 1977; Jackson et al., 1988; Menig et al., 2000, 2001 ), while vertebral bone has 7 levels of structural hierarchy (Currey, 1984; Landis, 1995; Rho et al., 1998; Weiner and Wagner, 1998).”
- Mechanical properties of unidirectional nanocomposites with non-uniformly or randomly staggered platelet distribution (2010, background): “The strength of natural biological materials is 100–300 MPa for shell and 100 MPa for bone (Jackson et al., 1988; Jager and Fratzl, 2000; Ji and Gao, 2004a; Menig et al., 2000, 2001), comparable to the strength of mineral.”
- Mechanical properties of nanostructure of biological materials (2004, background): “For instance, sea shells have 2 to 3 orders of lamellar structure (Currey, 1977; Menig et al., 2000, 2001; Jackson et al., 1988) and bone has 7 orders of hierarchy (Currey, 1984; Rho et al., 1998; Weiner and Wagner, 1998; Landis, 1995).”
