Abstract :
This study investigates and analyses alternative
materials for replacing the femur bone in the human
body, addressing the critical need for bio-implant
materials arising from injuries, diseases, or natural
deterioration. The femur, as the largest and strongest
bone, is indispensable for mobility and weight support.
Surgical intervention often necessitates the replacement of
damaged femurs with suitable bio-implant materials.
Using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), this
study selects optimal materials considering corrosion
resistance, biocompatibility, Young's modulus, fatigue
strength, and tensile strength—to replace the femur. A
geometric model of the femur bone is constructed using a
modelling package, enabling finite element analysis (FEA)
to evaluate the endurance and suitability of selected bio-
implant materials.
The FEA is conducted on two materials—stainless
steel and titanium alloy—to assess their performance as
femur replacements. Through comprehensive analysis,
this research aims to contribute insights into the efficacy
and viability of alternative bio-implant materials for
femur bone replacement.
