Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Object of the research was to develop a human buttocks dummy model simulated the structure of bone and soft tissue of human body, which is applicable to use for mechanical stress evaluation inside of soft tissue under the skin. Manufacturing technique of the buttocks dummy model with a muscle layer and fat layer faithful to human body based on cross-sectional images (e.g. CT) was developed, and same shape and structure as a human buttocks finite-element (FE) model was achieved. At the last, the buttocks dummy model was made by molding silicon rubber into the cast. The buttocks FE model and the buttocks dummy models which have same properties each other were obtained. If the posture and the contact pressure of the buttocks dummy model obtained in the experiment were input to the buttocks FE model, stress inside of the soft tissue which is difficult to get in the experiment can be obtained, and the application to the clinical nursing can be expected.
