Orientation of collagen at the osteocyte lacunae in human secondary osteons
Abstract
This work characterizes an aspect of human bone micro-structure, pertinent to fracture initiation and arrest. It addresses how the orientation of elementary components proximate to osteocyte lacunae influences secondary osteon micro-biomechanics. New data at the perilacunar region concerning orientation of collagen-apatite, and prior data on collagen orientation outside the perilacunar region, are incorporated in a novel simulation of osteons to...
