[Biomechanics of the connective tissue].
The authors discuss the collagen biomechanical properties. Firstly they recall the technical devices used in biomechanics and the mechanical data usually explored. Next, they review the mechanical properties of the various collagens found in tendons, joints, bone, vascular walls, skin and pulmonary alveoli.
