  2. 1. Modelling loading and growth of long bones Modelling loading and growth of long bones

    Author : Priti Yadav; Elena Gutierrez-Farewik; Anders Eriksson; Eva Pontén; Hanna Isaksson; KTH; []
    Keywords : Growth Plate; Finite element analysis; Engineering Mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Abstract : The long bones grow by the process of endochondral ossification, which occurs at the growth plate. This process is regulated by biological factors and mechanical factors. The biological factors which contribute to endochondral ossification process are genes, hormones, nutrients etc. The mechanical factor is the load acting on the bone. READ MORE
