The mean value is given in case mean ± SD was reported in the cited article. Where no quantitative data were available, relative measures were reported. Values for damage initiation were considered in experimental data reporting stress intensity or fracture energy (strain energy release rate). The stiffness for the matrix was measured under wet conditions. Symbols used in the table: ~ approximate value interpreted from figures; KG calculated from a reported stress intensity factor K, where G = K2/E, assuming E = 20 GPa (Koester et al. 2008); Ttransverse osteons (crack parallel to osteons); Llongitudinal osteons (crack perpendicular to osteons)
