this study aims to develop a comprehensive 3D FE model of the foot to investigate the effect of soft tissue stiffness on the plantar pressure distributions and the internal load transfer between bony structures.
the stress shielding occurring on the plantar surface of a flatfoot was investigated and compared with the mechanical behavior of a healthy foot, trough baropodometric analyses and the FE models.
the flatfoot evidences a more intensive stress-shielding map with significant values of pressure acting on the medial plantar fascia.
Clinically and radiographically, symptomatic adult flatfoot is a complex abnormality involving all three dimensions and multiple joints within the foot.
本研究旨在建立一个全面的足部三维有限元模型,以研究软组织刚度对足底压力分布以及骨结构之间内部载荷传递的影响。
通过足底压力分析和有限元模型,研究扁平足足底表面出现的应力屏蔽现象,并与健康足部的力学行为进行比较。
扁平足显示出更强烈的应力屏蔽图谱,足底内侧筋膜上的压力值显著。
在临床和影像学上,有症状的成人扁平足是一种复杂的异常情况,涉及足部的所有三个维度和多个关节。
