Experimental Validation of a Finite Element Model of an Osteoporotic Human Femoral Bone Using Strain Gauge Measurement

The complications of fractures caused by osteoporosis have a mortality rate of 15-20 % in elderly people, leading to severe physical disability and long term home care [1]. Although currently, the technology that allows us to prevent osteoporosis and fractures caused by this disease exists, the stat...
