A visco-elasto-plastic constitutive model is formulated for investigating the mechanics of
cortical bone tissue, accounting for an anisotropic configuration and post-elastic and time …

Trabecular bone has been previously recognized as time-dependent (viscoelastic) material,
but the relationships of its viscoelastic behaviour with bone volume fraction (BV/TV) have not …

The time-independent elastic properties of trabecular bone have been extensively
investigated, and several stiffness–density relations have been proposed. Although it is …
