Using Non-linear Homogenization to Improve the Performance of Macroscopic Damage Models of Trabecular Bone
Realistic macro-level finite element simulations of the mechanical behavior of trabecular bone, a cellular anisotropic material, require a suitable constitutive model; a model that incorporates the mechanical response of bone for complex loading scenarios and includes post-elastic phenomena, such as...
