Abstract
A mathematical model and computational algorithm are proposed for the regeneration of bone tissue controlled by a cell differentiation law and the action of an external mechanical stimulus of a periodic character. An extended dynamic model of a changing poroelastic continuous medium and the finite element method in a three-dimensional formulation are the basis of the calculation of the restoration of the elastic properties of bone tissue. The software developed makes it possible to study the processes in the regeneration of damaged bone elements of the human locomotor system with a steady dynamic load and theoretically to substantiate the choice of the optimal periodic action on the damaged tissues for their speediest and stable healing.
