areas of less interest used elements of 4mm. Finer mesh or higher but can be<br />

attributed to solid components and parts thereof, that surfaces (faces) or lines.<br />

For contacts between components of this analysis used contact type "Bonded"<br />

and "NoSeparation". Calculation algorithm is used to contact type<br />

"AugmentedLagrange" is used here a detection refer the identical "On Gauss<br />

Points". To better understand these contacts have given option "Pindball<br />

Region" with a radius of 0.1mm, which means that before you come into<br />

contact, the solver to impose a more efficient mathematical representation of<br />

these contact areas.<br />

The linear material properties (Bae, 2012), (Kubicek, 2009) used whitin<br />

this study are shown in the Table 2.<br />

For the set of materials values was calculated Von Misses, total and<br />

directional movements and deformations that occur both but the whole<br />

ensemble as well as the individual components.<br />

Due to subjected load 800N, the eqhilibrum of the forces in the knee joint<br />

was achieved for lateral displacement of 1.23 mm (Fig. 5). Because of this
