Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Bone is a topic of great interest for researchers, such as biologists or engineers, both interested in understanding the structure- related properties of bone and how they are affected by aging, disease and therapies. In particular, a topic of common interest between medicine and engineering is the fracture behavior of bone. Indeed, a thorough understanding of the mechanical behavior of bone is helpful to predict the fracture risk, but it can also provide the basis for the design of de novo biomimetic materials. In this paper, we show the initial results of an experimental study of the mechanical behavior of bovine bone, with a special focus on fracture toughness. The latter is evaluated under tensile and bending loading, by following the ASTM adopted for metals. Finally, we perform microscopic observations to better understand the fracture behavior and correlate it with the microscopic structure.
