Abstract
The objective is developing an XFEM model that is capable of predicting different types of fracture in the pelvic bone under various loading conditions. Previously published mechanical and failure characteristics of cortical and cancellous tissues were implemented and assigned to an intact pelvic bone with specified cortical and cancellous tissues. Various loading conditions, including combined load directions, were applied to the acetabulum to model different types of fracture (e.g., anterior/posterior wall fracture and transverse fracture) in the pelvic bone. The predicated types of fracture and the maximum force at fracture were compared to those acquired from previously published experimental tests. Anterior/posterior wall fracture and transverse fracture were the most common types of fractures determined in the simulations. The XFEM simulations were able to predict similar fractures to those reported in the experimental tests. The maximum fracture force in the XFEM model was found to be 18.6 kN compared to 8.85 kN reported in the previous experimental tests. The results revealed that different types of fracture in the pelvic bones can be caused by the various loading conditions in unstable high-rate impact loads. Using proper mechanical and failure behaviors of cortical and cancellous tissues, XFEM modeling of pelvic bone is capable of predicting bone fracture. In future work, the XFEM models of cancellous and cortical tissues can be assigned to other bones in human body skeleton so that the failure mechanism in such bones can be investigated.

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
