文摘
- •
No change in stiffness correlation between sideways fall FE models with isotropic and anisotropic material properties.
- •
Up to 14% difference in principal compressive strain of internal elements in femoral neck, head, and greater trochanter.
- •
Changes in nodal strain due to anisotropy were limited to internal nodes, with minimal effect observed in surface strains.
- •
Degree of anisotropy of trabecular bone could be underestimated by the conventional MIL measurement technique.
