Abstract:Osteoporosis is one of the most prevalent diseases in the last decades. The ageing of the population has led to a large increase in the number of people who suffer this musculoskeletal disease. For this reason, an early diagnosis of osteoporosis in order to improve bone fracture risk assessment is essential. To this end, efforts to enhance the knowledge in the elastic, post-yielding and fracture properties of bone are required.In this work, we have derived explicit equations to estimate the orthotropic elastic c… Show more
