Human Femur Implant FEA Study

Successfully completed a crucial Finite Element Analysis (FEA) study for a medical device client, focusing on the mechanical performance of an orthopaedic implant within a bone-like material. The primary objective was to simulate a rigorous fatigue test, applying a dynamic force equivalent to 300% of a 70kg human body weight onto the implanted device. This high-load scenario was designed to thoroughly assess the implant's durability and structural integrity under extreme physiological conditions. Through meticulous FEA modeling and analysis, we accurately simulated the stress distribution and deformation patterns within the implant and surrounding material. The simulation not only validated the design but demonstrated that the implant performed significantly better than anticipated under the specified load, achieving a lowest Factor of Safety (FOS) of 1.3, and exceeding performance expectations for long-term reliability.
