## Abstract We performed finite element analysis studies on 3 threeโdimensional representations of a single vertebral body: a regular cube, made of lowโdensity polyurethane foam (foam cube analog); a regular cube considered composed of cancellous bone only (bone cube analog)); and the body of the L
Numerical tests are used to evaluate the accuracy of two finite element formulations associated with the discrete ordinates method for solving the radiative transfer equation: the Least Square and the Discontinuous Galerkin finite element formulations. The results show that the use of a penalization
