Structural Biological Materials. Design and by M. Elices

By M. Elices

My editorial target during this sequence is to offer to the clinical public a set of texts that satisfies one among standards: the systematic presentation of a specialized yet vital subject inside fabrics technology or engineering that has now not formerly (or lately) been the topic of full-length remedy and is in fast improvement; or the systematic account of a wide subject matter in fabrics technological know-how or engineering. The books aren't, typically, designed as undergraduate texts, yet relatively are meant to be used at graduate point and through proven learn employees. notwithstanding, educating tools are in such fast evolution that a few of the books might locate use at an prior degree in college schooling. i've got lengthy editorial event either in overlaying the total of an incredible box -physical metallurgy or fabrics technology and know-how - and in arranging for specialized subsidiary themes to be provided in monographs. My purpose is to use the teachings realized in forty years of enhancing to the pursuits said above. Authors (and in a few circumstances, as the following, editors) were invited for his or her updated services and in addition for his or her skill to sec their topic in a much broader standpoint. i'm thankful to Elsevier technology Ltd., who personal the Pergamon imprint, and both to my authors and editors, for his or her self assurance, and to Dr. Rumen Duhlev of Elsevier technology Ltd. for his efforts on behalf of the sequence. Herewith, i'm happy to offer to the general public the fourth name during this sequence, on a subject matter of serious present trouble.

3. INTEGRATION AND ORGANISATION LEVELS The study of bone may be carried out considering different levels of observation or hierarchical levels. The possibility of specifying the stage in which the work is being carried out is of great importance in order to interpret adequately the results obtained. 1 Macroscopic level The bone architecture presents two categories which can be seen easily: the compact bone (or cortical) and the spongy (or trabecular cancellous) bone. The compact bone is a dense tissue.

From a general point of view, three basic criteria have been taken for the classification of biological tissues (Ricql6s 1975, Francillon-Vieillot et. al. 1990). 44 M. Onta~6n, C. P. Ginebra, J. Planell A first classification (A) is centred in the organisation of the bone matrix formed mainly by collagen fibres. The second category (B) does it from the bone vascularisation models. The third category and the less properly defined (C) uses the criterion of the ontogenetic models of formation of bone tissue.
