Multiscale Modelling of Proximal Femur Growth : Importance of Geometry and Influence of Load

Multiscale Modelling of Proximal Femur Growth : Importance of Geometry and Influence of Load

Longitudinal growth of long bone occurs at growth plates by a process called endochondral ossification. Endochondral ossification is affected by both biological and mechanical factors. This thesis focuses on the mechanical modulation of femoral bone growth occurring at the proximal growth plate, usi...
