The Study of Stress Distribution on Meniscus Using 3D Finite Element Model

Abstract:

Osteoarthritis is a degenerative disease of articular cartilageand meniscus that most experience in aged and obesity, always tend to grow up. Such bone surface degenerated will beirregular and has bone to grow called osteophyte. At moment making activities, the pain and the deformation of the knee joint are occurred thatcause decreasing quality of life. The deterioratedmeniscus has to encountersgradually changing the structureuntil it is not able to support the body weight. This paper proposes the preliminary studyof the knee jointbehavior, especially the meniscus during stand. Three dimensions (3-D) finite element (FE) model of the knee joint has constructed. This model consisted of femur, tibiaand meniscus without fibula.The external load were determined in each body weight and appliedon femur to evaluate maximum von-mises stress on the meniscus.The stress distribution on meniscus always occurs while exist the external load on the femur. The tendency of association between the external load and maximumstress was corresponding to that of the other author.
