| description | Knee Arthroplasty is a surgical procedure where the patient’s knee is replace by
prosthesis. By using the finite element analysis method, we can properly estimate the life span
of the prosthesis and also the polymer mobile bearing between the prosthesis itself. Most of the
prosthesis have a long lifespan but not for the polymer mobile bearing. Having only average of
2.5 years lifespan, it is a hustle for the patient to come back every 2.5 years to replace a new
polymer especially for the elderlies. This research is made to investigate and predict the fatigue
life of the polymer mobile bearing via finite element method and thus to design a newly improved
prosthesis model based on the commercially available. In this research, three different designs
were made based on the currently available mobile-bearing design. Each of the design will
undergoes different value of forces depending on three different of gait cycles which are walking,
ascending from the stairs as well as rising from squatting. Based on the fatigue life prediction
using finite element method, the proposed design (design 2) obtained the highest lifespan ranging
from 1.0 x 10^6 to 1.2 x 10^6cycle and it is increase almost 50% of the commercially available
design life cycle (8 x 10^5 cycle). Thus, it is can be concluded that the finite element method
can be used to predict life cycle of the mobile bearing successfully and can be used as a guided
to propose an improved design of the prosthesis. |
