Simulation of Femur Bone Fracture in Car Accident using CT Scan Data and Finite Element Analysis
نویسنده
چکیده
Fracture of femur bones in car accident is common. In the present work, the fracture of femur bone was modeled as a failure under three-point bending. The CT scan data was converted into 3D solid modeling using Mimics software. The finite element analysis (FEA) was carried out using ANSYS software. The FEA results were in good agreement with the experiment results.

A considerable potential for reducing fatalities of pedestrians and other vulnerable road users lies in the design of car front shapes. Vehicle safety tests have been proposed by the EEVC WG17, and are currently in discussion by legal entities, as well as car makers. In this study, we first present numerical simulations of various pedestrian impacts against several different simplified hood sha...

The geometric optimization of orthopedic screws can considerably increase their orthopedic efficiency. Due to the high geometric parameters of orthopedic screws, a finite element simulation is an effective tool for analyzing and forecasting the effect of the parameters on the load-bearing capacity of different types of screws and bones. Thus, in the present study, the tensile strength of a typi...
