Abstract

The paper presents the results of a numerical study of the effect on stress-strain state of the elements of a person's leg after surgical treatment, replacement of damaged tissues with osteomyelitis with implants made of bioglass. The mathematical model of conducted research was based on the basic relations of continuum mechanics, in conjunction with numerical methods, in particular, by the finite element method. In the course of the study, three design groups were considered, the differences of which consisted in the size of bioglass implants, each group, in turn, consisted of four design schemes, two of which described an “intact” state and a “damaged” state, the other two the schemes described the human leg after surgical treatment of implant installation made of various types of bioglass -AC-5 and FAR-5, respectively. According to the results of the research, characteristics of stress-strain state were obtained and a comparative analysis was carried out.
