The present paper focuses on the mechanical behavior analysis of bones at mesoscopic scale, paying a special attention to the trabecular bone and the bone marrow filling the porosities. Uni-axial quasi-static compression tests under unconfined conditions have been performed to identify the mechanical behavior of 46 trabecular bone samples. The bone marrow for 22 samples has been preserved to analyze the fluid flow effects on the crushing response.
