PLAN MODEL TO ANALYZE THE STATE OF STRESSES AND STRAINS
OF THE HUMAN PROXIMAL FEMORAL BONE
Botean Adrian
Abstract: This study aims to analyze the state of stresses and strains of the human proximal femoral bone
using an innovative plan model. Behavior analysis for this plan model is performed experimental, using
digital image correlation, and numerically, using finite element method. Mechanical load model is
properly to unipodal support.
Key words: femoral human bone, plane model, digital image correlation, finite element method
