Abstract :
In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of age on the development of femoral bone tension in the hip region in the chains of young and middle-aged men aged 16-18-20-23-44-56-48-64. We studied. To simulate the bone model, a digital computed tomography scan of the femur was performed on each of the subjects. We mimicked 3D images of each individual hip bone with the original geometry. After modeling the chips, they were assembled into solid version of Warex software. The range of partitions was computed in Abacus software and analyzed separately. In addition to changes in bone geometry, age also had an effect on the amount of material change that was calculated at the boundary conditions at the time of analysis. Finally, it was observed that increasing age and unhealthy patterns of movement caused changes in bone geometry, so in addition to changes in geometry, material changes also played a role in increasing stress. In this study, it was observed that increasing age would decrease the area of the hip cross-section and increase the stress concentration in this area. Also at younger ages there was no increase in tension and no stress concentration was observed and stress was normal and extensive in bone.
