Abstract

The importance of mechanical modeling has been increasing in recent years for almost every area of biological sciences. The process of bone recovery is one of the issues to be addressed within a mechanical framework. In this study, a model for the bone healing process is proposed taking into account the bone cell population as well as the effect of energy dissipation. Numerical simulations for bone under a cyclic external loading are performed in order to show predicting capabilities of the model. (Available here)
