Im trying to find out what and how to do things in ansys. Im hping I have a 3D scanned model of the ankle ( in process) to use , does anyone know what boundary conditions to use? where I can find the material properties?
If you are including more than one bone, the BCs of the foot and ankle are terribly complex. I suggest looking at the scientific literature to see what
simplifications can be made.
Try searching google scholar for ankle material properties and foot/ankle FEA:
I tried the eng-tips forum it doesn't seem to like me, as I am never able to look at mu own threads. I can probably find out the BC, but I cannot (as much as I google) find out if ansys lets me do analysis on an animated assembly. Can I import an in my case an animated version of the ankle joint movement and to structural analysis on it.
