A uniform strain criterion for trabecular bone adaptation: Do continuum-level strain gradients drive adaptation?

In this paper, it is postulated that the apparent density of trabecular bone adapts so that continuum-level strains within the bone are uniform and, as a consequence, spatial strain gradients within the bone/marrow continuum are minimized. The feasibility of a uniform strain criterion was tested usi...
