Abstract Summary
To improve the methods used to compare density-modulus relationships and material mapping strategies, this study used experimental loading of scapulae within a micro-CT. Experimental boundary conditions (BCs) were replicated in QCT-FEMs using digital volume correlation (DVC), and DVC was used to compare the experimental loading results to QCT-FEMs based on reaction forces and full-field displacements. QCT-FEMs were assigned mechanical properties derived from different density-modulus relationships and either elemental or nodal material mapping strategies.
