Abstract
Finite Element (FE) methods have been widely used to model fractures. The Theory of Critical Distances (TCD) was proposed to predict the fatigue fracture of materials. With the introduction of FE models, this theory has been developed and extensively applied to different materials. FE models of fractures usually need a high resolution meshing or remeshing due to introducing new cracks. This can be a disadvantage, e.g. when the fracture plane of the material is under compression. In this paper the TCD was adopted to predict the multiaxial fracture of bone with the aim of studying the effects of geometry on fracture force.
