Q1. What are the contributions mentioned in the paper "A continuum model for the bio-mechanical interactions between living tissue and bio-resorbable graft after bone reconstructive surgery" ?
The authors introduce a two-constituent porous continuum as a model describing the long-term growth/resorption phenomena in bone tissues grafted with bio-resorbable materials as driven by mechanical loads. The authors present some numerical simulations for rod-bones subjected to axial external load.
