    | Dear colleagues;

    | I am working on constitutive modeling of human bone with an emphasis on

    Contact the group of Prof. R.Huiskes in Nijmegen, the Netherlands.
    They perform FEM computations on 3D femur models.
    Phone: +31-24-3614476

    Check out their publications. (Huiskes, Weinans, Mullender, ...)


    Greetings,
    Sander
