Abstract
We extend, reformulate and analyse a phenomenological model for bone remodelling. The original macrobiomechanical model (MBM), proposed by Hazelwood et al. [J Biomech 2001; 34:299-308], couples a population equation for the cellular activities of the basic multicellular units (BMUs) in the bone and a rate equation to account for microdamage and repair. We propose to account for bone failure under severe overstressing by incorporating a Paris-like power-law damage accumulation term. The extended model agrees with the Hazelwood et al. predictions when the bone is under-stressed, and allows for suitably loaded bones to fail, in agreement with other MBM and experimental data regarding damage by fatigue. We numerically solve the extended model using a convergent algorithm and show that for unchanging loads, the stationary solution captures fully the model behaviour. We compute and analyse the stationary solutions. Our analysis helps guide additional extensions to this and other BMU activity based models.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
