Finite Element Modeling and Analysis of Prosthetic Knee Joint
Degenerative arthritis is a disease that affects the line cartilage of the knee joint. It causes severe pain in the joint and may require a replacement surgery of the affected knee with artificial components. Geometric complexity and non linearity of the materials of the knee make the analytical solutions of the mechanical behaviour of the knee joint difficult. The knee is the most complex join...
متن کاملFinite Element Modeling of Knee and Shoulder Ligaments
The medial collateral ligament (MCL) is the primary restraint to knee valgus rotation and a secondary restraint to anterior tibial translation. The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is a primary restraint to anterior tibial translation, but its contribution to valgus restraint was debated. To address this, a combined experimental and computational study was conducted to determine the effect of A...
متن کاملFinite element assessment of block-augmented total knee arthroplasty.
Loosening and migration of tibial prostheses have been identified as causes of early total knee replacement (TKR) failure. The problem is made more complex when defects occur in the proximal tibia compromising fixation and alignment. Clinical studies using metal augments have shown these to be an alternative to other means of defect treatment. Finite element (FE) analysis can be used to identif...
متن کاملThermo-Mechanical Finite Element Modeling of the Friction Drilling Process
Friction drilling uses a rotating conical tool to penetrate the workpiece and create a bushing in a single step without generating chips. This research investigates the threedimensional (3D) finite element modeling (FEM) of large plastic strain and hightemperature work-material deformation in friction drilling. The explicit FEM code with temperature-dependent mechanical and thermal properties, ...
متن کاملFinite Element Analysis of Safety Mechanism in a Mechanical Controller
In this study, dynamic behavior of safety mechanism of a mechanical controller is investigated using 3D-FE simulation. This paper is concentrated on controller of a high acceleration projectile. The controller is located in the top of the projectile. Safety mechanism is divided to deformable and rigid parts. Deformable and rigid parts are simulated in Abaqus and Adams commercial soft wares; res...
