Abstract
Biological response of tissues constituting the skeletal system against load and trauma will be discussed in this chapter. Real-life situations due to individual differences such as genetics, age, gender and anatomy are sometimes difficult to simulate. Mathematical formulation of the relationship between joints and movement can be theorized easily with some assumptions. Basic methodology of orthopedic diseases treatment, however, is closely associated with this biological response.
