Abstract

In present paper we investigated if temperature plays any role to the growth of cracks in a tibia due to distance-running. We used modified theory of adaptive elasticity taking into account the temperature. We compared our results with that of the corresponding problem neglecting temperature and we concluded that temperature effects the bone disease.
