Comparison of the Stress-Strain Behaviour of Cast TiAl6V4, Porous TiAl6V4 and Cortical Bone during the Mechanical Load Caused by Common Daily Activities

Abstract:

This paper deals with FEM analysis of six models that represents human cortical bone, cast TiAl6V4 alloy and porous TiAl6V4 with different pore diameters. Reliable data for the simulations were achieved by meta-analysis that consisted from 53 scientific works. Strain value was chosen with a respect to the frequent daily activities such as walking. According to the FEM analysis of presented models von Mises stress values and stress concentration factors were similar for human cortical bone and porous TiAl6V4.
