Abstract

The crack-growth-resistance behavior in cortical bone was studied. It was observed that the initiation based measure for antler cortical bone was non-significantly lower than bovine bone. The results demonstrated that the cortical bone obtained from antlers of red deer is twice as much tough as bovine cortical bone.
