Comparison of Human and Sheep Femur with Finite Element Method
Abstract
Analysis studies using the finite element method (FEM) in human and animal health research have gained importance with the development of computer technology. FEM analysis studies are performed on animals such as mice, dogs, rabbits, pigs, horses and sheep. Modeling studies of the bones found in these animals give more accurate results in large animals. The aim of this study is to create solid models of human and sheep femurs and compare the stress, strain and deformation values with the help of a package program using the finite element method. As a result of the analyzes, it was determined that the mechanical values in the sheep femur were lower than those in the human femur.
