Contact stress simulation problem in case of the Mg alloys

Abstract

Abstract This paper highlights the simulations of the contact stresses generated in the case of the load applied on biodegradable alloys based on Mg (Mg-0.5 Ca-xY), starting from previous studies done on these alloys and the homogeneity of the materials in different areas. Thus, it was tried to establish the parameters necessary for modeling, so that it would define as accurately the material studied. The main purpose of this paper was to identify the maximum values of the strain developed at the point of contact on the surface of the biodegradable alloys. This value was subsequently used to determine the limit values, for the practical use of these biodegradable alloys.
