Abstract

During bone drilling surgery, the bone drill can generate drilling force and frictional heat, which may lead to mechanical and thermal damage to the bone tissue. This paper presents a finite element (FE) simulation of bone drilling for cortical and cancellous bone, analyzing the influence of drilling parameters on bone drilling force and temperature. The simulation results reveal the change laws of axial force and temperature during different density bone drilling for various parameters. To optimize the bone drilling parameters, the Taguchi method is applied to conduct bone drilling simulation experiments based on the FE simulation model. The optimal values of axial force and temperature are predicted and calculated under the condition of optimal drilling parameters. Furthermore, a robot bone drilling experiment platform is used to verify the bone drilling FE simulation model and the optimal parameters. The research demonstrates that the FE simulation model effectively explores the influence of drilling parameters on bone drilling force and temperature, while the Taguchi method optimizes the drill parameters to minimize the mechanical and thermal damage to the bone tissue.
