A multi-layered poroelastic slab model under cyclic loading for a single osteon

Abstract Background An osteon consists of a multi-layered bone matrix and interstitial fluid flow in the lacunar–canalicular system. Loading-induced interstitial fluid flow in the lacunar–canalicular system is critical for osteocyte mechanotransduction and bone remodelling. Methods To investigate th...
