A three-scale finite element investigation into the effects of tissue mineralisation and lamellar organisation in human cortical and trabecular bone
(Elsevier, 2012-03-20)
Bone is an exceptional material that is lightweight for efficient movement but also exhibits excellent strength and stiffness imparted by a composite material of organic proteins and mineral crystals that are intricately ...
Computational modelling of ovine critical-sized tibial defects with implanted scaffolds and prediction of the safety of fixator removal
(Elsevier, 2015-01-14)
Computational model geometries of tibial defects with two types of implanted tissue engineering scaffolds, β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) and poly-ε-caprolactone (PCL)/β-TCP, are constructed from µ-CT scan images of the ...
Experimental and computational investigation of the role of stress fiber contractility in the resistance of osteoblasts to compression
(2013)
The mechanical behavior of the actin cytoskeleton has previously been investigated using both experimental and computational techniques. However, these investigations have not elucidated the role the cytoskeleton plays in ...
