Samenvatting

Compact bone is a well-organised, multi-level porous structure. Strain-derived fluid flow likely steers the activity of cells within the bone matrix, which in turn orchestrate the concerted activity of bone resorbing and bone forming cells at the surface. We present a model of the strain-driven bone remodelling proces, which could explain the mechanically optimised structure of compact bone.
