Abstract

The present paper aims at an interdisciplinary field, regarding biomechanics aspects of the Hallux Valgus, which is a frequent deformity in our days. Owing to the importance of the study theme and the social impact, we consider it very important that the state of the art should be as detailed as possible, due to this condition being frequent in women and older people. The review will target recent research of the biomechanics of the foot, the test subjects being in normal conditions and also patients affected by Hallux valgus deformities; likewise, it will define important geometrical elements, which are required for the engineering approach of the issue. As well, the 3D modelling of the condition will be taken into consideration, beside with the surgical procedures and conservative treatments. Another important aspect covered in the paper is regarding the research and CAE simulations using the FEM, alongside with the work stands developed in this area. The bibliographic research found on the most important journals and databases shall be synthesized and structured in order to highlight the big picture of a specific research regarding a future PhD thesis.
