The mechanical properties of ribs from a large number of\n                    <jats:italic>post-mortem<\/jats:italic>\n                    human subjects (PMHS) were analyzed to search for variation according to age, sex or BMI in the sample. A large sample of specimens from different donors (\n                    <jats:italic>N<\/jats:italic>\n                    = 64) with a very wide range of ages and anthropometric characteristics was tested.\n                    <jats:italic>Methods<\/jats:italic>\n                    . Uniaxial tensile tests were used for a sample of coupons machined from cortical bone tissue in order to isolate the purely mechanical properties from the geometrically influenced properties of the rib. Each coupon is about 25 mm long and has a thickness of about 0.5 mm. The mechanical properties measured for each specimen\/coupon include YM, yield stress, ultimate stress (maximum failure stress), ultimate strain, and resilience (energy to fracture of SED). The study provides new methodological improvements in DIC techniques.\n                    <jats:italic>Results<\/jats:italic>\n                    . This study is notable for using an atypically large sample of number of PMHS. The size of the sample allowed the authors to determine that age has a significant effect on failure stress (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt; 0.0001), yield stress (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    = 0.0047), ultimate strain (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt; 0.0001) and resilience (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt; 0.0001) [numbers in parentheses represent the corresponding\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2212 values]. Finally, there is a combined effect, so that for a given age, an increase of BMI leads to a decrease of the maximum strain (i.e. cortical bone is less stiff when both age and BMI are higher).\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1088\/2057-1976\/abf787","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,4,14]],"date-time":"2021-04-14T03:01:03Z","timestamp":1618369263000},"page":"035013","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1088\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":17,"title":["Influence of anthopometric variables on the mechanical properties of human rib cortical bone"],"prefix":"10.1088","volume":"7","author":[{"given":"Juan","family":"Vel\u00e1zquez-Ameijide","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Silvia","family":"Garc\u00eda-Vilana","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0671-4106","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"David","family":"S\u00e1nchez-Molina","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Eva","family":"Mart\u00ednez-Gonz\u00e1lez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4982-206X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jordi","family":"Llum\u00e0","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"M Carmen","family":"Rebollo-Soria","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Carlos","family":"Arregui-Dalmases","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"266","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,4,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"bpexabf787bib1","first-page":"165","type":"journal-article","article-title":"A comprehensive overview of the frequency and the severity of injuries sustained by car occupants and subsequent implications in terms of injury prevention","volume":"56","author":"Page","year":"2012","journal-title":"Annals of Advances in Automotive Medicine \/ Annual Scientific Conference"},{"key":"bpexabf787bib2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"362","DOI":"10.1007\/978-1-4757-2264-2_15","type":"book","article-title":"The Biomechanics of Thoracic Trauma","author":"Cavanaugh","year":"1993"},{"key":"bpexabf787bib3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"80","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jflm.2016.07.009","type":"journal-article","article-title":"Injury pattern in lethal motorbikes-pedestrian collisions, in the area of Barcelona","volume":"43","author":"Rebollo-Soria","year":"2016","journal-title":"Spain\u2019, Journal of forensic and legal medicine"},{"key":"bpexabf787bib4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"S195","DOI":"10.1080\/15389588.2018.1426927","type":"journal-article","article-title":"Functional outcomes of thoracic injuries in pediatric and adult occupants","volume":"19","author":"Weaver","year":"2018","journal-title":"Traffic Inj Prev"},{"key":"bpexabf787bib5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"100","DOI":"10.1115\/1.2834288","type":"journal-article","article-title":"Biomechanics of human thoracic ribs","volume":"120","author":"Yoganandan","year":"1998","journal-title":"J.
