Domains of computational models to predict capacitive changes for bone-sensor interface changes: (a) liquid domain for the striped architecture (contactless scenarios); (b) trabeculae domain for the striped architecture (contactless scenarios). Similar domains were defined for the circular architecture, although with larger lengths (20 mm); (c,d) Model apparatuses for the striped and circular architectures, respectively, including the domain ’intermediate air’ (exploded view). Domains: 1—surrounding air; 2—liquid (bone); 3—trabeculae; 4—surrounding air; 5—interfacial sheet; 6— electrodes; 7—substrate.
