Parameter study for the finite element modelling of long bones with computed-tomography-imaging-based stiffness distribution. Four radii of different horses were tested in three-point bending and in pure torsion. Detailed finite element (FE) models of these long bones were established by means of computed-tomography (CT) images and tests simulated for both load cases. For the allocation of the local isotropic material stiffness, individual exponential functions were applied whose factor and exponent were determined solely by fitting them to the measured torsional stiffness and bending stiffness of the entire bones. These stiffness functions referring directly to the CT number and having exponents between 1.5 and 2 we...
