Verification & Validation

Recall from Pre-analysis, the equivalent stiffness of the bone model is:

ANSYS gives a stiffness of 26.14 MPa for the bone model. According to Professor Hernandez, the stiffness for this model is about 24MPa. There is an 8% error and the source of the error is currently being determined.
