Finite Element Modelling of Human Mandible

Supervisor: Prof. Abid Ali Khan, AMU, 2017

I completed this project while working as a UG researcher in Prof. Khan’s Lab. It was a joint colloboration between All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) and Aligarh Muslim University (AMU).

Description

In this independent project I worked alongside dentists to analyse the physical effects on mandible caused due to implants through finite element analysis. Simulations were carried out to predict the effects of various implants on human mandible. We designed rough estimates of the implants and assembled them on the mandible CAD file. Forces that implant applies were simulated and stress generated was recorded. Our study shows that the proposed implants cause little or no stress on the mandible. Following is the visual description of the project.
