Understanding what maturity entails for bone, when it arrives, and its pre- and post-maturity traits and properties are very important for understanding its evolution and physiology. There is a clear but fine distinction between the chronological age... Read More about Assessing bone maturity: Compositional and mechanical properties of rib cortical bone at different ages.

Moving packed beds for cryogenic CO2 capture: analysis of packing material and bed precooling (2021)
Journal Article
