Damage tolerance and toughness of elderly human femora
MultiSim researchers, in collaboration with colleagues at Flinders University (Adelaide, Australia), have published a paper in Acta Biomaterialia which analysed the mechanism of femoral fractures using the Bone Digital Volume Correlation algorithm.
The Bone Digital Volume Correlation algorithm was developed at the University of Sheffield.
The findings of this study will inform the advancement of current technologies for the prediction of fractures and interventions to reduce the burden of hip fragility.
