摘要
The Biot model is widely used to model poroelastic media. Several authors have studied its applicability to cancellous bone. In this article the feasibility of determining the Biot parameters of cancellous bone by acoustic interrogation using frequencies in the 5-15 kHz range is studied. It is found that the porosity of the specimen can be determined with a high degree of accuracy. The degree to which other parameters can be determined accurately depends upon porosity.
