FIGUEREDO LOSADA, Henry et al. Model of bone remodeling: a computed analysis. Rev Cubana Invest Bioméd [online]. 2010, vol.29, n.4, pp. 512-522. ISSN 1561-3011.

This paper takes the bone remodeling model proposed by Jacob (1994) and is implemented in a finite element program using a user subroutine (UMAT), and applied to a 2D model of a generic bone with a system of charges to test the effects of remodeling and changes in the density values. As part of this work were created two programs for processing data for analysis of results outside the finite element program, achieving a qualitative and quantitative assessment of the results.
