Simulation of creep in non-homogenous samples of human cortical bone (2011)
Journal Article
Ertas, A. H., Winwood, K., Zioupos, P., & Cotton, J. R. (2012). Simulation of creep in non-homogenous samples of human cortical bone. Computer methods in biomechanics and biomedical engineering, 15(10), 1121-1128. https://doi.org/10.1080/10255842.2011.575069

Characterising the mechanisms causing viscoelastic mechanical properties of human cortical bone, as well as understanding sources of variation, is important in predicting response of the bone to creep and fatigue loads. Any better understanding, when... Read More about Simulation of creep in non-homogenous samples of human cortical bone.

The effect of strain rate on fracture toughness of human cortical bone: A finite element study (2011)
Journal Article
Ural, A., Zioupos, P., Buchanan, D., & Vashishth, D. (2011). The effect of strain rate on fracture toughness of human cortical bone: A finite element study. Journal of the mechanical behavior of biomedical materials, 4(7), 1021-1032. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmbbm.2011.03.011

Evaluating the mechanical response of bone under high loading rates is crucial to understanding fractures in traumatic accidents or falls. In the current study, a computational approach based on cohesive finite element modeling was employed to evalua...
