ABSTRACT
The effect of weight force on knee model was studied by simulation analysis using the SolidWorks. Six different human weight varied from 40 kg to 90 kg were subjected to stress and strain analysis on the knee joint model. A mesh size of 3.5 mm was selected according to the corresponding maximum stress intensity and number of nodes. The results showed that maximum stress intensity and strain increased with the increase of applied weight force. The uppermost part of the femur was found to be deformed for 58 mm when subjected to a human weight of 90 kg and gradually decreases from femur towards the tibia. However, there is insignificant deformation on the tibia detected although the weight was increased to 90 kg.
