Abstract: Numerical approximation of the solutions to continuum mechanics boundary value problems, by means of finite element analysis, has proven to be of incalculable benefit to the field of musculoskeletal biomechanics. This article briefly outlines the conceptual basis of finite element analysis and discusses a number of the key technical considerations involved, specifically from the standpoint of effective modeling of biomechanical systems. The purpose of this paper is to perform a finite element analysis of a human fibular bone to validate the applicability of the finite element technique to this kind of complex structures, the human bones. The bone is modeled as nonhomogenous, orthotropic and linear elastic material.
