Volume-based non-continuum modeling of bone functional adaptation
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Bone adapts to mechanical strain by rearranging the trabecular geometry and bone density. The common finite element methods used to simulate this adaptation have inconsistencies regarding material properties at each node and are comp...
