The techniques used to validate finite element (FE) models against experimental results have changed little during the last decades, even though the traditional approach of using single point measurements from strain gauges has major limitations: the...

The importance of craniofacial sutures in biomechanical finite element models of the domestic pig (2012)
Journal Article
Bright, J. A. (2012). The importance of craniofacial sutures in biomechanical finite element models of the domestic pig. PLoS ONE, 7(2), e31769. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0031769

Craniofacial sutures are a ubiquitous feature of the vertebrate skull. Previous experimental work has shown that bone strain magnitudes and orientations often vary when moving from one bone to another, across a craniofacial suture. This has led to th...
