✦ Synopsis


In this work we derive an existence and uniqueness result in the theory of bone remodeling. Specifically, we consider the model derived by Cowin and Hegedus, directly from continuum mechanics theory and use a fixed point argument in order to prove the existence of solutions. An adaptation of the Cowin and Nachlinger analysis leads also to a uniqueness result.

## Abstract During the remodeling phase of fracture healing in mice, the callus gradually transforms into a double cortex, which thereafter merges into one cortex. In large animals, a double cortex normally does not form. We investigated whether these patterns of remodeling of the fracture callus i
