This monograph presents a general mathematical theory for biological growth. It provides
both a conceptual and a technical foundation for the understanding and analysis of …

The present manuscript documents our first experiences with a computational model for
stress-induced arterial wall growth and in-stent restenosis related to atherosclerosis. The …

In this study, four different stem shapes for hip prosthesis have been designed to investigate
an optimum stem shape. The stem shapes have geometries of varying curvatures. The first …

Periprosthetic bone loss in response to total hip arthroplasty is a serious complication
compromising patient's life quality as it may cause the premature failure of the implant …

This study investigates stress shielding by predicting bone density around two different
implants following total hip arthroplasty using a new thermodynamic‐based model for bone …

Numerous numerical methods have been developed in an effort to accurately predict
stresses in bones. The largest group are variants of the h-version of the finite element …

A triphasic model (solid, interstices filled with water containing nutrients) is proposed for the
phenomenological description of transversely isotropic saturated biological tissues including …

Adaptive bone remodeling is an important factor that leads to bone resorption in the
surrounding femoral bone and implant loosening. Taking into account this factor in the …

This manuscript is driven by the need to understand the fundamental mechanisms that
cause twisted bone growth and shoulder pain in high performance tennis players. Our …

Friction between the moving parts of the endoprosthesis has a significant impact on the
endoprosthesis operation time. Primarily, it concerns the endoprosthesis of hip and knee …
