Anisotropy of Mechanical Properties of <i>Pinctada margaritifera</i> Mollusk Shell

Anisotropy of Mechanical Properties of <i>Pinctada margaritifera</i> Mollusk Shell

The mechanical properties such as compressive strength and nanohardness were investigated for <i>Pinctada margaritifera</i> mollusk shells. The compressive strength was evaluated through a uniaxial static compression test performed along the load directions parallel and perpendicular to...
