Journal Article
Akbarzadeh, J., Puchegger, S., Stojanovic, A., Kirchner, H. O., Binder, W. H., Bernstorff, S., Zioupos, P., & Peterlik, H. (2014). Timescales of self-healing in human bone tissue and polymeric ionic liquids. Bioinspired, Biomimetic and Nanobiomaterials, 3(3), 123-130. https://doi.org/10.1680/bbn.14.00007

Strain (stress-free) relaxation in mechanically prestrained bone has a time constant of 75 s. It occurs by a reorganization of the proteoglycan-glycoprotein matrix between collagen fibers, which requires ionic interactions. Dissolving and relinking t...
