Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine fatigue in a porous magnesium bone scaffold. It applies finite element simulation in assessing bone scaffolding’s fatigue behaviour with variations in axial loading based on physiological activities in humans. By applying the boundary conditions to the solid mechanics model and fatigue simulation, it subjects each specimen to a different loading of 1000 - 3500 με, which gives the bone scaffold displacement variations. The simulation results of fatigue life for the porosity of 30%, 41%, and 55% show that the greater the loading, the lower the number of failure cycles on the porous magnesium bone scaffold. For a porosity of 30% with a load of 1000 - 3500 με, it produces the number of failure cycles from 3.99x1022 - 3.61 x1016.
