Three Dimensional Finite Element

A three-dimensional finite element model of the lower first premolar, with the three layers of enamel, dentin, and pulp, and the mandible, with the two layers of cortical and cancellous bones, was directly constructed from noninvasively acquired CT images. This model was used to develop a system to analyze the stresses on the teeth and supporting bone structure during occlusion based on the finite element method and to examine the possibility of mechanical simulation.

Abstract The effects of variations in stiffness and geometry on the nonuniformity of tires are investigated by using the finite element analysis. In order to evaluate tire uniformity, a three-dimensional finite element model of the tire with imperfections is developed. This paper considers how imperfections, such as variations in stiffness or geometry and run-out, contribute to detrimental effects on tire nonuniformity. It is found that the radial force variation of a tire with imperfections depends strongly on the geometrical variations of the tire.

Three Dimensional Finite Element

A short explanation of the finite element method as a powerful tool for mathematical modeling is provided, and an application using constitutive modeling of the behavior of ligaments is introduced. Few possible explanations of the role of water in ligament function are extracted from two dimensional finite element models of a classical ligament. The modeling is extended to a three dimensional finite element model for the human anterior cruciate ligament. Simulation of ligament force in pitching motion of basketball player is studied in this paper.
