The importance of cortical bone orthotropicity, maximum stiffness direction and thickness on the reliability of mandible numerical models

Aim: To identify mechanical and geometrical variables affecting the biofidelity of numerical models of human mandible. Computed results sensibility to cortical bone orthotropy and thicknesses is investigated. Methods: Two mandible numerical models of different bone complexities are setup. In the low...
