Remodelling is a dynamic process occurring during growth and it includes sensing of environmental changes, tissue resorbance, i.e. the removal of existing old bone, and formation of new tissue. The biomechanical remodelling process is relatively well formulated for bones and can be divided into...

Bead packs of up to 150,000 mono-sized spheres with packing densities ranging from 0.58 to 0.64 have been studied by means of X-ray computed tomography. These studies represent the largest and the most accurate description of the structure of disordered packings at the grain-scale ever...
