In this graduation thesis it is deduced deformation and tightness of leg’s receiver as well as skin and soft tissues’ at contact place. By using the finite elements method with digital ANSYS 5.5.1 programmable packet it was made leg��s prothesis receiver and stump soft tissues’ model. Two models were analysed: linear and non-linear. By making the non-linear system calculation it is measured non-linear features of leg’s prothesis receiver material and stump skin soft tissues’. Results of analyses showed that the size of maximum deformation is 1,3 less then in case of linear system, maximum stress decreases 1,2 times. Consequently for exact contact calculation it is needed to use non-linear model.

The advent of modern computer technologies provided a powerful tool in numerical simulations. One of the most frequently used method for the discretization of the physical domain is Finite element Method (FEM). One of the main problems in a finite element analysis is the adequacy of the finite element mesh. Since the quality of the finite element solution directly depends on the quality of meshes, the additional process to improve the quality of meshes is necessary for reliable finite element approximation. In order to perform quality-assessed numerical simulation, the adaptive finite element strategies have been developed. These strategies integrate the finite element analysis with error estimation and fully automatic mesh modification, user interaction with this process is limited by initial geometry data and possible error tolerance definition. The finite element solution, obtained during adaptive finite element strategy process, approximates quite good different engineering structures. Despite many works in this area the problem of the adequate finite element mesh is not fully solved and additional developments are needed in order to improve adaptive mesh refinement strategy process. The aim and tasks of the work – to obtain methodology for quality assessed discretization to finite elements for complex geometry engineering structures by adaptive finite element strategies. To realize this purpose the following scientific tasks have been dealt: to develop an automatic... [to full text]
