Bone remodelling using sensitivity analysis.
A boundary element formulation is presented for analysing the surface bone remodelling. The formulation is based on sensitivity analysis and utilises design parameters which are related to the shape of the bone. An application of the method to the modelling of bone ingrowth into a slot of an implant is presented.
