The application of the homogenisation method to the numerical modelling of cancellous bone

Includes bibliographical references (pages 75-78). === This thesis reports on an investigation into the viability of developing idealised numerical models of cancellous bone in order to make reasonable predictions about its macro- and microstructural mechanical behaviour using the homogenisation met...
