Analysis of Mechanical Behavior of Biomaterials of HA/Ti for Bone Tissue Regeneration Using Finite Element Method

This work presents the numerical analysis by FEM of different types of biomaterials based on Hydroxyapatite and Hydroxyapatite-Titanium to estimate the values of maximum stresses in a tibial segment. The mechanical response with respect to an axial applied force of 750N on the tibial plateaus of the bone structure was analyzed. The 3D models were considered static systems. For the numerical analysis, the ANSYS tool was transmitted. The maximum stresses and total deformations in the biomaterials based on Hydroxyapatite and Hydroxyapatite-Titanium are within the range reported in the literature and confirm that the reconstruction of the 3D model used can be a good alternative in the regeneration of bone tissue. In addition, to consider reinforcing them with titanium plates, considerably increasing the stress capacity, which is important in the treatment of implants in long bones.
