Modeling the Mechanical Consequences of Age-Related Trabecular Bone Loss by XFEM Simulation
The elderly are more likely to suffer from fracture because of age-related trabecular bone loss. Different bone loss locations and patterns have different effects on bone mechanical properties. Extended finite element method (XFEM) can simulate fracture process and was suited to investigate the effe...
