Simulation of the Elastic Behaviour of the Human Mandible: Experimental Validation and Material Parameter Identification
نویسندگان
چکیده
A numerical simulation of the elastic behaviour of the human mandible is realized via the finite element method. To test the validity of the simplifying assumptions of this model, carefully designed in vitro experiments are implemented on a special-purpose biomechanical test stand. Using this validation procedure, a method for identifying the material properties of the mandible can be implemented by solving an inverse problem. Résumé. Une simulation numérique du comportement élastique de la mandibule humaine a été réalisée à l’aide de la méthode des éléments finis. Pour tester la validité des hypothèses simplificatrices du modèle, des experiences soigneusement projetées ont été performées sur un banc d’essai biomécanique. Employant ce procédé de validation, une méthode d’identifier les propriétés matériels de la mandibule peut être implementé par la solution d’un problème inverse.

Closed Form Solution for Electro-Magneto-Thermo-Elastic Behaviour of Double-Layered Composite Cylinder
Electro-magneto-thermo-elastic response of a thick double-layered cylinder made from a homogeneous interlayer and a functionally graded piezoelectric material (FGPM) outer layer is investigated. Material properties of the FGPM layer vary along radius based on the power law distribution. The vessel is subjected to an internal pressure, an induced electric potential, a uniform magnetic field and ...

متن کاملNumerical and Experimental Investigations on Springback of U-bending of DP600 Steel Alloy Sheet
The most prominent feature of sheet material forming process is an elastic recovery phenomenon during unloading which leads to springback and side wall curl. Therefore evaluation of springback and side wall curl is mandatory for production of precise products. In this paper, the effects of some parameters such as friction coefficient, sheet thickness, yield strength of sheet and blank-holder fo...
