Engineers and materials scientists have long recognized that human bone, when compared to structural steel on a weight-adjusted basis, delivers superior strength. Cortical bone achieves compressive ...
Human cortical bone can withstand compressive loads near 170 megapascals before failure, yet it weighs roughly one-third as much as structural steel of comparable volume. That combination of strength ...
