Abstract
In the present study, numerical simulations are employed to evaluate elastic properties of hydroxyapatite and wollastonite reinforced Zinc alloy biocomposite with finite element approach. Prior insight for experimental procedures on compressive behaviour of implant is established with prime focus on effect of aspect ratio. Aspect ratio has a prominent effect in load transfer along the length of the specimen. The parametric study conducted to evaluate the effect of aspect ratio on the geometry of compressive specimen and strain on the composite reveals phenomenal variations. The results of the analysis exhibits square specimen has lower stresses, hence use of square specimen is insignificant in compression experiments. Both square and circular specimens averages the stresses at an aspect ratio of 1.7 which indicates the optimum aspect ratio for compression experimentation. The findings of the this numerical analysis can guide experimentation in making better decisions on specimen geometry, aspect ratio and strain to evaluate the compressive behaviour.
