Passive Flexion

A predictive model of passive flexion of the knee to 45 degrees. All materials and contact interactions are the same as described on the wiki frontpage.

Platform

Employed 8 threads on Ohio Supercomputing Center's Glenn cluster - 1 node; 2 quad core 64 bit AMD Opterons; Linux.

Results

The model converged with a solution wall clock time of 32:44:25. The equivalent model in dynamic analysis on 8 threads took 10:17:39. The static model took approximately 218% longer to solve.

Kinematic Comparison

The static and dynamic models exhibited essentially identical kinematics as seen in the following plots.

Stress/Strain Comparison

Likewise, stress, strain, and contact pressure distributions were also nearly identical. A comparison of contour plots of the 3rd principal strain and contact pressure for the tibial cartilage are shown below.
