Abstract excerpt
Although recent nanoindentation studies have revealed the existence of substantial variations in tissue modulus within single specimens of trabecular bone, little is known regarding the biomechanical effects of such intraspecimen variations. In this study, high-resolution finite element modeling was used to investigate these effects. With limited literature information on the spatial distribution of intraspecimen...
