The Effects of Bony Structure Simplification Methods on the Biomechanics of Tibiofemoral Joint in Series of Flexion Angles
To investigate the effects of bony structure simplification methods on the biomechanics of tibiofemoral joint under compression and torsion effects in series of flexion angles,the MRI images of the normal human knee at flexion angles of 0°/25°/60°/80° were developed through SONATA MAESTRO 1.5T,then through the technology of threshold segmentation and registration assembly,bone tissue distinguished models and single material models were built based on these images.The results show that:(1) at the flexion angles of 0°/60°/80°,the maximum equivalent stress on femur and femoral cartilage significantly were slightly higher than single material models,only at 25 °,the maximum equivalent stress of the femoral cartilage in single material model was obviously larger; (2) difference of maximum equivalent stress on tibia and tibial cartilage between two kinds of models was not significant,and stress increased with the increase of flexion angle,only at 80 °,the stress on tibia of bone tissue distinguished models reduced; (3) The skeletal load was borne mainly by the cortical bone.
