1.
The effect of three-dimensional geometrical changes during adolescent growth on the biomechanics of a spinal motion segment
Meijer G, Homminga J, Hekman E, Veldhuizen A, Verkerke G
J Biomech . 2010 Mar; 43(8):1590-7. PMID: 20206933
During adolescent growth, vertebrae and intervertebral discs undergo various geometrical changes. Although such changes in geometry are well known, their effects on spinal stiffness remains poorly understood. However, this understanding...
2.
The osteoporotic vertebral structure is well adapted to the loads of daily life, but not to infrequent "error" loads
Homminga J, Van-Rietbergen B, Lochmuller E, Weinans H, Eckstein F, Huiskes R
Bone . 2004 Mar; 34(3):510-6. PMID: 15003798
Osteoporotic vertebral fractures typically have a gradual onset, frequently remain clinically undetected, and do not seem to be related to traumatic events. The osteoporotic vertebrae may therefore be expected to...
3.
The influence of microcomputed tomography threshold variations on the assessment of structural and mechanical trabecular bone properties
Hara T, Tanck E, Homminga J, Huiskes R
Bone . 2002 Jul; 31(1):107-9. PMID: 12110421
In this study, we investigate how morphological parameters and mechanical properties derived from microcomputed tomography (microCT) are affected by small errors in threshold value when variable bone structures and different...
4.
Cancellous bone mechanical properties from normals and patients with hip fractures differ on the structure level, not on the bone hard tissue level
Homminga J, McCreadie B, Ciarelli T, Weinans H, Goldstein S, Huiskes R
Bone . 2002 May; 30(5):759-64. PMID: 11996916
Osteoporosis is currently defined in terms of low bone mass. However, the source of fragility leading to fracture has not been adequately described. In particular, the contributions of bone tissue...

Osteoporosis changes the amount of vertebral trabecular bone at risk of fracture but not the vertebral load distribution
Homminga J, Weinans H, Gowin W, Felsenberg D, Huiskes R
Spine (Phila Pa 1976) . 2001 Jul; 26(14):1555-61. PMID: 11462085
Study Design: A finite-element study to investigate the amount of trabecular bone at risk of fracture and the distribution of load between trabecular core and cortical shell, for healthy, osteopenic,...

Increase in bone volume fraction precedes architectural adaptation in growing bone
Tanck E, Homminga J, van Lenthe G, Huiskes R
Bone . 2001 Jun; 28(6):650-4. PMID: 11425654
In mature trabecular bone, both density and trabecular orientation are adapted to external mechanical loads. Few quantitative data are available on the development of architecture and mechanical adaptation in juvenile...

Mechanical consequences of bone loss in cancellous bone
van der Linden J, Homminga J, Verhaar J, Weinans H
J Bone Miner Res . 2001 Mar; 16(3):457-65. PMID: 11277263
The skeleton is continuously being renewed in the bone remodeling process. This prevents accumulation of damage and adapts the architecture to external loads. A side effect is a gradual decrease...

Introduction and evaluation of a gray-value voxel conversion technique
Homminga J, Huiskes R, van Rietbergen B, Ruegsegger P, Weinans H
J Biomech . 2001 Mar; 34(4):513-7. PMID: 11266675
In micro finite element analyses (microFEA) of cancellous bone, the 3D-imaging data that the FEA-models are based on, contain a range of gray-values. In the construction of the eventual FEA-model,...
