Fracture toughness of an industrially supplied cancellous bone simulant (2025)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Sohail, M. A., & Zioupos, P. (2024, September). Fracture toughness of an industrially supplied cancellous bone simulant. Presented at SimBio-M 2024, Online

Introduction:
The human cancellous bone has a hierarchical structure that gives it its unique mechanical properties. The study of the mechanical integrity of bone is crucial in diagnosing and treating condition of bone loss such as osteoporosis. Fra...

Advanced Wound Care: Working towards standardised test platforms for novel therapies (2024)
Thesis
Hill, C. A. (2024). Advanced Wound Care: Working towards standardised test platforms for novel therapies. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4927712

There used to be limited knowledge on how wounds heal in response to clinical treatments, therefore therapies were often ineffective, causing a need to heal the wounds that failed to respond to treatment (Gregor et al., 2008; Huang et al., 2014). Dev... Read More about Advanced Wound Care: Working towards standardised test platforms for novel therapies.
