Effects of Bone Young’s Modulus on Finite Element Analysis in the Lateral Ankle Biomechanics

Finite element analysis (FEA) is a powerful tool in biomechanics. The mechanical properties of biological tissue used in FEA modeling are mainly from experimental data, which vary greatly and are sometimes uncertain. The purpose of this study was to research how Young’s modulus affects the computati...
