초록

본 연구는 유한 요소 법을 이용한 노화되어 강성/강도가 저하되는 요추 체의 얇은 피질과 해면 골의 하중 분담 비율 분석과 사용된 탄성계수들의 평가가 목적이다. 해면 골의 나은 해석을 위하여, 20년마다 압축 시험에서 얻은 탄성계수를 체적 공극 비율로 나눈 유효 탄성계수를 사용하였다. 이와 상응하는 피질 쉘도 공극 비율을 포함한 빔 이론의 수식들로부터 유효 탄성계수를 구한 후에 적용하였다. 또한 p-요소를 사용하여 수치 오차를 최소화하였다. 보고된 논문들을 참고하여 후관절 부분이 제거된 매개 변수적인 퇴행된 L3 척추 형상을 만들어 유한 요소 모델링 하였다. 일정 변위의 압축 조건을 가한 후에 여덟 조각의 부피 별로 각 뼈에서 탄성 변형률 에너지와 수직 하중의 비율을 사용하여 하중 분담 비율을 계산하였다. 결과로는 1) 20대에서 80대까지 해면 골의 하중 비율은 55%에서 49%로 감소하였다; 2) 피질 쉘은 중간 면에서 최고 비율을, 해면 골은 종판에서 최고 비율을 나타냈다; 3) 다공성 얇은 피질과 해면 골을 위한 유효 탄성계수의 사용은 적절하였다; 4) 두 방법을 이용하여 얻은 하중 분담 비율의 차이는, 전체 비율은 1% 미만 내에서 같지만 각 위치에서의 비율 값들은 약간 달랐다.

This research was aimed to analyze load sharing ratios between cortical shell and trabecular bone of a degraded lumbar vertebra with aging, and also evaluate elastic moduli assigned into an FE model, using finite element method. For the better analysis of trabecular bone, effective elastic moduli, that is, nominal elastic moduli divided by the volumetric porosities was used. The elastic moduli of the cortical shell suitable for the trabecular bone were obtained from the equations on the basis of idealized stress-strain relations, including areal porosities. To minimize numerical errors, p-element was used. Using eight parameters that refer to some published papers, the geometry of L3 with a removed posterior part. After the constant compressive displacement was applied, the load sharing ratios were obtained by using both every elastic strain energy and every vertical force between two bones in each 8-volume. As results, 1) according to an increase in age from 20-year to 80-year, load sharing ratios of trabecular bone decreased from 55% to 49%; 2) the maximal ratios of each bone were occurred in the mid-plane of centrums and the endplate of cortical shells, respectively; 3) effective elastic moduli assigned into a porous centrum/cortex were found to be adequate; 4) for load sharing ratios, the difference of two methods showed that the total ratios were almost same within less than 1% but the partial ratios at every depth were more or less different each other.
