The case relies on simulations of varying levels of tibiofemoral joint loading to evaluate the performance of the model in terms of convergence while reasonably predicting joint mechanics. Convergence is defined by the ease and speed of simulations. Relative predictive accuracy evaluates changes in predicted joint kinematics and tissue stress-strain distributions. |
Synopsis
The overall goal of this case study is to understand convergence characteristics of Open Knee(s) - Generation 1 model to conduct simulations in an efficient and effective manner.
Use Case
The case relies on simulations of varying levels of tibiofemoral joint loading to evaluate the performance of the model in terms of convergence while reasonably predicting joint mechanics. Convergence is defined by the ease and speed of simulations. Relative predictive accuracy evaluates changes in predicted joint kinematics and tissue stress-strain distributions.
Simulation Aims
- To understand the role of joint loading on convergence characteristics
- To understand the role of simulation (numerical analysis) parameters on convergence characteristics
- To understand model parameters on convergence characteristics
- To understand new model features on convergence characteristics
Model
The model is based on Open Knee(s) - Generation 1 model, which was updated for FEBio version 2.1:
