In this review paper, some relevant models, algorithms, and approaches conceived to
describe the bone tissue mechanics and the remodeling process are showcased …

It is well understood that the balance of bone formation and resorption is dependent on both
mechanical and biochemical factors. In addition to cell-secreted cytokines and growth …

Fiber-reinforced composites are materials that display a great potentiality in many
applications for their multifaceted features. The employment of curved fibers contributes to …

We propose a variational approach that employs a generalized principle of virtual work to
estimate both the mechanical response and the changes in living bone tissue during the …

Even though heterogeneous porous materials are widely used in a variety of engineering
and scientific fields, such as aerospace, energy-storage technology, and bio-engineering …

In the past years, many attempts have been made in order to model the process of bone
remodeling. This process is complex, as it is governed by not yet completely understood …

A possible strain energy density, incorporating Cosserat's micro-rotations and Biot's change
in porosity conferred by the microstructure geometry, is proposed in an elastic, two …

Infill density used in additive manufacturing incorporates a structural response change in the
structure. Infill pattern creates a microstructure that affects the mechanical performance as …

Microstructure related deviation from elastic response is known as “size-effect.”
Metamaterials–for example modeled by strain gradient elasticity–capture this effect …

Introduction: Since the early stages of alveolar bone grafting development, multiple types of
materials have been used. Iliac cancellous bone graft (ICBG) remains the gold standard …
