Abstract The cover picture shows shear bands that develop during compression of cortical bone. It shows that the bands extend across the bone lamellae and are mirror symmetric with respect to the loading axis. More on the inelastic deformation of cortical bone can be found in the paper By C. Mercer and A. G. Evans on page 719..
