Half of the women who sustain a hip fracture would not qualify for osteoporosis treatment
based on current DXA-estimated bone mineral density criteria. Therefore, a better approach …

A deeper understanding of the cartilage-bone mechanics is fundamental to unravel onset
and progression of osteoarthritis, enabling better diagnosis and treatment. The aim of this …

Aims The aim of the study was to investigate whether the primary stability of press-fit
acetabular components can be improved by altering the impaction procedure. Methods …

Subaerial weathering of bone is a taphonomic process that affects many archaeological and
paleontological assemblages and is characterized by surface bleaching, loss of organic …

Many mechanical properties of cortical bone are largely governed by the underlying
microarchitecture; however, the influence of microarchitecture on the fatigue life of bone is …

Background and objective Finite element models built from micro-computed tomography
scans have become a powerful tool to investigate the mechanical properties of trabecular …

In this study, the sensitivity of the apparent response of trabecular bone to different
constitutive models at the tissue level was investigated using finite element (FE) modeling …

Digital volume correlation (DVC), combined with in situ synchrotron microcomputed
tomography (SR-microCT) mechanics, allows for 3D full-field strain measurement in bone at …

1, 25-Dihydroxyvitamin D (3)(1, 25 (OH)(2) D (3)) concentrations have been found to be
decreased in diabetic humans and rats. To investigate further the regulation of plasma Ca in …

The aim of this study was to determine whether effects of repetitive freeze‐thaw cycles, with
various thawing temperatures, on human muscle tissue can be quantified using postmortem …
