Abstract

Growth problems come under open system thermodynamics. The open system thermodynamics developed by Ellen Kulh et al. is used. Bone growth and healing with and without discontinuity are studied. A crack block element is introduced to discrete mesh geometry to capture the stress singularity at the crack,. Influence of stress singularity near the crack tip is currently being investigated.
