Deformation and failure pattern obtained from FE model of sub-lamellar bone with different levels of intrafibrillar mineralization analyzed under compression loading in vertical direction. As the amount of intrafibrillar mineralization was diminished the resistance of mineralized collagen fibrils were decreased, resulting in a weaker behavior for oim/oim bone having smaller intrafibrillar mineral content.
