The effectiveness of a new algorithm on a three‐dimensional finite element model construction of bone trabeculae in implant biomechanics

Abstract: More validity of finite element analysis (FEA) in implant biomechanics requires element downsizing. However, excess downsizing needs computer memory and calculation time. To evaluate the effectiveness of a new algorithm established for more valid FEA model construction without downsizing, three-dimensional FEA bone trabeculae models with different element sizes (300, 150 and 75 micron) were constructed. Four algorithms of stepwise (1 to 4 ranks) assignment of Young's modulus accorded with bone volume in the in… Show more

“…[12] According to Sato et al . [13] in a 3D finite element study, variation in bone stress around an implant were negligible if the length of bone between the modeled implant and the bone segment end was at least 4.2 mm. Therefore, the length of the modeled bone segment was 12.5 mm.…”
