Additional information

This work is concerned with understanding the physical changes which occur in biomaterials, particularly collagen and apatite, as a result of thermal exposure, encompassing analysis of thermally induced deformation and fracture patterns.

It results from a British Council grant (U03) and has been followed up by other biomaterials researchers, including PhD study in Canada (Katie Waterhouse; onbt@me.com; Waterhouse, 2013, Journal of Forensic and Legal Medicine). The work has found application in archaeological contexts to understand cremation practices in Brazil (Strauss et al, 2011, Current Research on Pleistocene) and Italy (Tecchiati and Rizzi, 2012, Annali del Museo Civico di Rovereto).
