Finite Element Analysis of Knee Joint with Ti6Al4V

MECHANICAL ENGINEERING

Knee joint is the most important joint in the human body. Various stresses and strain produce in the joint in static and dynamic loading condition. To calculate stress and strain in joint we first have to create model of the knee joint. This 3D model is created using reverse engineering concept. There is various software used to create 3D model from the CT scan images and also model can generate using laser scanner and CMM. By using medical imaging software like MIMICS we can easily visualize 3D model which is the part of reverse engineering. After creating the 3D image it is analyzed using analytical software like ANSYS. For the analysis we give different loads on the model so we can analyses different results. The result gives an idea about effect of loading on knee joint.
