Abstract:
At present, the numerical model of bone remodeling is inadequate to copy the physiological process of bone remodeling. According to the physiological mechanism of bone remodeling and the anisotropy of bone mechanics properties, an anisotropic bone modeling model with mechanostat was developed, and then was applied to a study on the remodeling evolution of 2D squareplate model. Good results were obtained. The model can be used in the study of implant, osteoporosis and other bone diseases.
