The focus of this book is on mechanical aspects of skeletal fragility related to aging and osteoporosis. Topics include: Age-related changes in trabecular structure and strength age-related changes in cortical material properties age-related changes in whole-bone structure predicting bone strength and fracture risk using image-based methods and finite element analysis animal models of osteoporosis and aging age-related changes in skeletal mechano responsiveness exercise and physical interventions for osteoporosis.
