description abstract | Understanding of ultrasonic wave propagation in bones is essential for further development of related techniques in clinical practice. As any other saturated porous medium, bone is characterized by different forms of longitudinal wave propagation, either undrained waves or fast and (Frenkel–Biot) slow compressional waves. We here study the wave propagation in the framework of poromicromechanics. A continuum micromechanics model allows for the prediction of the anisotropic poroelastic properties, Biot’s coefficients, and moduli, from tissue-specific composition data, on the basis of tissue-independent (“universal”) elastic properties of the elementary components of all bones. These poroelastic properties enter the governing equations for wave propagation in anisotropic porous media. They allow for the prediction of undrained, fast and slow waves, as is verified by comparison of model results with experimental findings. | |
