Modelling Human Tibia Structural Vibrations [PDF]
Journal of Biomechanics, 1990 Mode shapes and natural frequencies of human long bones play an important role in the interpretation, prediction and control of their dynamic response to external mechanical loads. This paper describes an experimental and theoretical study of free vibrations in an excised human tibia.
