This paper describes a multiscale modeling approach developed to understand the effect of nano and microarchitecture and nanostructural nuances in nacre-based nanocomposi [...]

Biological hard tissues, composites of inorganic materials (such as ceramics) and organic matrices (such as proteins), have unusual engineering mechanical properties comp [...]

Polymer-hydroxyapatite (HAP) composites are extensively studied for their potential use as bone replacement materials. In situ mineralization of HAP and the role of organ [...]
