MIT Professor Markus Buehler has helped reveal why bones are so tough. The object on the screen is a triple helical tropocollagen molecule, a fundamental building block of bone. Next to the molecule are nanosized hydroxyapatite chalk-like crystals. In his work he simulates the behavior of the composite of tropocollagen and hydroxyapatite during deformation.
