Robotic scan and FEA for upper limb fracture fixation
The task is the preparation and finite element modelling of the automated 3D printing of an orthosis used for upper limb fracture fixation.
Tasks to be performed
- Development of a 3D scanning procedure for the upper limb.
- Creation of a surface model of a 3D scanned set of points
- Sizing the orthosis based on the 3D surface model
- Finite element modelling of the orthosis model according to the prescribed load and material model
- Optimization of the 3D mesh structure of the orthosis model with the help of FEM
- Preparation of the optimized 3D model for 3D printing
- Destructive testing of the 3D printed model with the instruments of the 3D Center, comparing it with the simulation results obtained during the VEM
Commitments
- Preparation of an article (Q2 at least)
