Book Finite Element Analysis of Bone Remodeling  Implementation of a Remodeling Algorithm in MATLAB and ANSYS

Download or read book Finite Element Analysis of Bone Remodeling Implementation of a Remodeling Algorithm in MATLAB and ANSYS written by Martin Groß and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2008-08-18 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2006 in the subject Medicine - Biomedical Engineering, grade: 1.0, Technical University of Munich (LS Statik), course: Master of Science of Computational Mechanics, language: English, abstract: The process of adaptive bone remodeling can be described mathematically and simulated in a computer model, integrated with the finite element method. The main focus of this thesis is the implementation of a bone remodeling algorithm in MATLAB and ANSYS on the basis of FEM. The strain energy density is used as mechanical stimulus. The cortical and trabecular bone are described as continuous materials with variable density. This thesis can be divided into four main parts. The first part is due to the material properties of cortical and trabecular bone. The second part is about the remodeling theory and gives an historical review of the developed numerical approaches up to now. The implementation of the remodeling algorithm in ANSYS and MATLAB as well as its validation is topic of part three. In last main part, the algorithm is applied to a 2D FE-model of a human proximal femur.

Book Numerical Modeling of Cortical Bone Adaptation Due to Mechanical Loading Using the Finite Element Method

Download or read book Numerical Modeling of Cortical Bone Adaptation Due to Mechanical Loading Using the Finite Element Method written by Natarajan Chennimalai Kumar and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is well known that bone tissue adapts its shape and structure according to its mechanical environment. Bone adaptation occurs on the dense cortical bone and porous trabecular bone. The process of bone adaptation is shown to be dependent on a number of mechanical loading parameters such as magnitude, frequency, number of bouts etc. of applied loading through experimental studies. We propose to develop a numerical framework, which can simulate and predict cortical bone adaptation due to diff erent parameters of loading. In pursuit of the development of the framework, we develop a method to generate fi nite element (FE) models of actual rat ulna from micro computed tomography (micro-CT) images. The external adaptation process is implemented in the model by moving the surface nodes of the FE mesh along the normal direction based on an evolution law characterized by two parameters: one that captures the rate of the adaptation process (referred to as gain); and the other characterizing the threshold value of the mechanical stimulus required for adaptation (referred to as threshold-sensitivity). Cortical bone is firstly modeled as an elastic material. Loading from experiments of Robling et al is applied on the FE model and the elastic boundary value problem is solved. Based on the results of the FE solution, the surface nodes are displaced according to the local strain energy density as the growth stimulus. Using this stimulus, we show that the model can simulate the e ffect of the magnitude of applied loading on the growth response. We calibrate the growth law parameters by comparing the results from our model to the experimental results. A parametric study is carried out to evaluate the e ffect of these two parameters on the adaptation response. We show, following comparison of results from the simulations to the experimental observations, that splitting the loading cycles into di fferent number of bouts a ffects the threshold-sensitivity but not the rate of adaptation. We also show that the threshold-sensitivity parameter can quantify the mechanosensitivity of the osteocytes. The use of strain energy density stimulus and elastic material model cannot simulate the e ect of frequency of applied loading on the cortical bone adaptation response. We model cortical bone as a poroelastic material to account for the interstitial fluid flow. We aim to develop a growth stimulus similar to strain energy density for the poroelastic material model. In order to achieve this goal, we develop the FE model of a rectangular beam subjected to pure bending. This geometric model is chosen for simplicity, as an idealized representation of cortical bone. We then propose the use of the dissipation energy of the poroelastic ow as a mechanical stimulus for bone adaptation, and show that it can predict the eff ect of frequency of the applied load. Surface adaptation in the model depends on the weighted average of the mechanical stimulus in a "zone of influence" near each surface point, in order to incorporate the non-locality in the mechanotransduction of osteocytes present in the lacunae. We show that the dissipation energy stimulus and the resulting increase in second moment of inertia of the cross section increase linearly with frequency in the low frequency range (less than 10 Hz) and saturate at the higher frequency range (greater than 10 Hz). Similar non-linear adaptation frequency response also has been observed in numerous experiments. We extend the poroelastic material model, dissipation energy stimulus, and the zone of infuence to the actual rat ulna FE model. We implement orthotropic permeability on the rat ulna model in order to be anatomically consistent. We calibrate the growth law parameters (gain and threshold-sensitivity) using experimental results. We analyze the growth response of cortical bone for a range of frequencies (from 2 Hz to 25 Hz) and show that the adaptation response is non-linear with respect to the frequency of loading.

Book Elastic Properties of the Human Femur

Download or read book Elastic Properties of the Human Femur written by Annette Bretin and published by . This book was released on 2019-02-04 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Patient-specific finite element modelling of bone is a promising method for surgical planning, implant design and the prediction of bone remodelling or fracture risks, yet the assignment of material properties is challenging. Bone is a complicated structure with direction-dependent, inhomogeneous material properties, influenced by compositional, geometrical and architectural aspects. This volume focuses on a density-based assignment of orthotropic bone properties. Elasticity-density relationships in homogenized femoral zones were examined to evaluate the orthotropic density-dependence of the nine elastic material constants locally. Cortical bone samples were tested in compression and torsion tests using videoextensometry to determine the elastic constants. The elastic properties of cancellous bone were predicted by micro finite element analysis. All determined constants were correlated to the radiological bone mineral density of each sample, which was determined by quantitative computed tomography. The trabecular eigensystem was investigated for each cancellous zone to assign the mean directionality of trabecular fabric. The results can be beneficial for density-based orthotropic material assignment in femoral patient-specific finite element models.
