Cortical bone elements with effective plastic strain greater than 1.5% accumulated over the entire computation time. The threshold was exceeded in the following body regions: right hipbone 1.5 mm thickness (all simulations), 3rd lumbar vertebrae posterior (all except SFO0.5), left hipbone 1.5 mm thickness (SFO2, SFO10), 1st lumbar vertebrae posterior (Myers). The volume of failed shell elements accumulated to 87 mm3 (SFO0.5), 103 mm3 (SFO1), 223 mm3 (SFO2), 275 mm3 (SFO10) and 247 mm3 (Myers)
