## Abstract Bone remodeling due to stress‐shielding has been studied using a model system consisting of metal‐polymer laminated fixation plates securely fixed to canine femurs. The plate stiffness was controlled by varying the ratio of metal facing to polymer core thickness in the laminate design w

## Abstract We propose a two‐dimensional mathematical model of trabecular bone remodeling that simulates the surface‐based addition and removal of material in the actual physiological process. The model is based on a finite element representation of individual trabecular struts in which the materia
