%X Simulation of fall can predict the fall direction, impact load and location. This is effective measure for preventing falls in the elderly. Also, the 3D-finite element analysis used in measuring by micro CT, allows one to estimate bone strength and quality without numerous and expensive fracture testing of real human bones.<p /> <p>Language: ja</p>
