Composite has been widely used in various fields due to its advanced performance. To reveal the relation between the mechanical properties of the composite and that of each individual component, finite element analysis (FEA) has usually been adopted. In this study, in order to predict the mechanical properties of hard coating on a soft polymer, the response of this coating system during nanoindentation was modelled. Various models, such as a viscoelastic model and fitting model, were adopted to analyse the indentation response of this coating system. By varying the substrate properties (i.e., Young’s modulus, viscoelasticity, and Poisson’s ratio), Young’s modulus, energy loss, and the viscoelastic model of the coating system were analysed, and how the mechanical properties of the substrate will affect the indentation response of the coating system was discussed.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the contribution of the microstructural properties of trabecular bone in predicting its elastic modulus in the intertrochanteric region. A total of 15 trabecular bone core specimens were obtained from the proximal femurs of patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty. The micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) was used to scan each specimen to obtain micro-morphology. Microstructural parameters were directly calculated using software. Micro-CT images were converted to micro-finite element model using meshing technique, and then micro-finite element analysis (FEA) was performed to assess the mechanical property (Young’s modulus) of trabecular bone. The results showed that the ability to explain this variance of Young’s modulus is improved by combining the structural indices with each other. It suggested that assessment of bone microarchitecture should be added as regards detection of osteoporosis and evaluation of the efficacy of drug treatments for osteoporosis.

The aim of this study was to analyze the spinal stability and safety after posterior spinal fusion with various fixation segments and screw types in patients with an osteoporotic thoracolumbar burst fracture based on finite element analysis (FEA). To realize various osteoporotic vertebral fracture conditions on T12, seven cases of Young’s modulus, namely 0%, 1%, 5%, 10%, 25%, 50%, and 100% of the Young’s modulus, for vertebral bones under intact conditions were considered. Four types of fixation for thoracolumbar fracture on T12 (fixed with T11-L1, T10-T11-L1, T11-L1-L2, and T10-T11-L1-L2) were applied to the thoracolumbar fusion model. The following screw types were considered: pedicle screw (PS) and cortical screw (CS). Using FEA, four motions were performed on the fixed spine, and the stress applied to the screw, peri-implant bone (PIB), and intervertebral disc (IVD) and the range of motion (ROM) were calculated. The lowest ROM calculated corresponded to the T10-T11-L1-L2 model, while the closest to the intact situation was achieved in the T11-L1-L2 fixation model using PS. The lowest stress in the screw and PB was detected in the T10-T11-L1-L2 fixation model.

In our previous study, we modeled the indentation performed on an elastic–plastic solid with a rigid conical indenter by using finite element analysis, and established a relationship between a nominal hardness/reduced Young’s modulus (Hn/Er) and unloading work/total indentation work (We/Wt). The elasticity of the indenter was absorbed in Er ≡ 1/[(1 − ν2)/E + (1 − νi2)/Ei], where Ei and νi are the Young’s modulus and Poisson’s ratio of the indenter, and E and ν are those of the indented material. However, recalculation by directly introducing the elasticity of the indenter show that the use of Er alone cannot accurately reflect the combined elastic effect of the indenter and indented material, but the ratio η = [E/(1 − ν2)]/[Ei/(1 − νi2)] would influence the Hn/Er–We/Wt relationship. Thereby, we replaced Er with a combined Young’s modulus Ec ≡ 1/[(1 − ν2)/E + 1.32(1 − νi2)/Ei] = Er/[1 + 0.32η/(1 + η)], and found that the approximate Hn/Ec–We/Wt relationship is almost independent of selected η values over 0–0.3834, which can be used to give good estimates of E as verified by experimental results.

Existing indentation models (both analytical models and numerical analysis) show a linear relationship between δr/δm and H/Er, where δr and δm are the residual and maximum indentation depth, and Er and H are the reduced Young's modulus and hardness of the test material. Based on the analysis of Oliver and Pharr, a new relationship between δr/δm and H/Er has been derived in a different way without any additional assumptions, which is nonlinear, and this has been verified by finite element analysis for a range of bulk materials. Furthermore, this new relationship for residual depth is used to derive an analytical relationship for the radius of the plastic deformation zone Rp in terms of the residual depth, Young’s modulus, and hardness, which has also been verified by finite element simulations for elastic perfectly plastic materials with different work hardening behavior. The analytical model and finite element simulation confirms that the conventional relationship used to determine Rp developed by Lawn et al. overestimates the plastic deformation, especially for those materials with high E/H ratio. The model and finite element analysis demonstrate that Rp scales with δr, which is sensible given the self-similarity of the indentations at different scales, and that the ratio of Rp/δr is nearly constant for materials with different E/H, which contradicts the conventional view.
