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.

İnsan ve Koyun Femur Kemiğinin Sonlu Elemanlar Yöntemiyle Karşılaştırılması

Abstract

İnsan ve hayvan sağlığı araştırmalarında sonlu elemanlar yöntemi (SEY) kullanılarak gerçekleştirilen analiz çalışmaları, bilgisayar teknolojisinin de gelişmesiyle birlikte önem kazanmıştır. SEY analiz çalışmaları fare, köpek, tavşan, domuz, at ve koyun gibi hayvanlarda yapılmaktadır. Bu hayvanlarda bulunan kemiklerin modelleme çalışmaları büyük hayvanlarda yapılması daha doğru sonuçlar vermektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, insan ve koyun femurununlarının katı modellemelerinin oluşturulup, sonlu elemanlar yöntemi kullanılarak bir paket program yardımıyla gerilme, şekil değiştirme ve deformasyon değerlerinin karşılaştırılmasıdır. Analizler sonucunda koyun femurundaki mekanik değerlerin insan femurundakilere kıyasla daha düşük olduğu tespit edilmiştir.
