Interfacial reactions drive all elemental cycling on Earth and play pivotal roles in human
activities such as agriculture, water purification, energy production and storage …

All solid materials are created via nucleation. In this evolutionary process, nuclei form in
solution or at interfaces, expand by monomeric growth and oriented attachment, and …

Bone has a special structure that is both stiff and elastic, and the composition of bone
confers it with an exceptional mechanical property. However, bone substitute materials that …

The mineralization of type I collagen is a biological process occurring in vertebrates by
which some hard tissues such as bone and dentin are constructed. Due to the extensive …

Despite current developments in bone substitute technology for spinal fusion, there is a lack
of adequate materials for bone regeneration in clinical applications. Recombinant human …

Bone mineralization is critical to maintaining tissue mechanical function. The application of
mechanical stress via exercise promotes bone mineralization via cellular …

Background: Superior capsular reconstruction (SCR) has been demonstrated to be a
valuable treatment for patients with irreparable massive rotator cuff tears (IMRCTs) …

Mineralized collagen scaffold is one of the best choices for bone defects treatment, but weak
mechanical strength is the main factor restricting its development. Recent studies …

Many terms such as twist, compress, bend, and stretch, describe how materials behave
when subjected to mechanical stresses. Subjective adjectives to describe the property of …
