Articular cartilage is a cushioning material which reduces contact pressure on joint, and
protects subchondral bone from direct load. In the recent studies on mechanical behavior of …

Mechanical behavior of bone is determined by the structure and intrinsic, local material
properties of the tissue. However, previously presented knee joint models for evaluation of …

Computer based three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction technique is widely used in clinical
practices and its accuracy is still improving due to introducing of high resolution imaging …

The complex geometry of cancellous bone tissue makes it difficult to generate finite element
(FE) models. Only a few studies investigated the convergence behavior at the tissue scale …

To simulate the mechanical and fracture behaviors of cancellous bone in three anatomical
directions and to develop an equivalent constitutive model. Microscale extended finite …

Periprosthetic bone loss following total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a serious concern leading to
the premature failure of prosthetic implant. Therefore, investigating bone remodeling in …

Two distinct geometrical models of bone at the nanoscale (collagen fibril and mineral
platelets) are analyzed computationally. In the first model (model I), minerals are periodically …

Computational models can provide information on joint function and risk of tissue failure
related to progression of osteoarthritis (OA). Currently, the joint geometries utilized in …

Simulation of bone remodeling at the bone cell level can predict changes in bone
microarchitecture and density due to bone diseases and drug treatment. Their clinical …
