This book provides a cohesive introduction to macromolecule collagen and its many applications in biomaterials and tissue engineering. Graduate students and researchers in the fields of materials science, bioengineering, physics, chemistry, and biology gain an understanding of the structure and mechanical behavior of type I collagen and collagen-based tissues in vertebrates. The book covers all length scales from the molecular to the organ level. Clearly written and easy to follow, it includes the most current understanding of collagen's hierarchical structure, mechanical properties, and deformation and strengthening mechanisms.
