Studies will be perfomerd in order to find the total displacement and the equivalent tension when the prosthesis will be the subject in a scenario of a similar pressure with an impact produced while a persone who’s weighing is 75 kg (165.346 lbs.) during a movement at a speed of 10 meter/second will hit a metal pole. The analyzes will help us to find out the safety of the knee prosthesis and choose the optimal material for manufacturing. The main reason why we are doing this analisys is the safety of the knee prosthesis users, this criterion will be extremely important in our analysis and I will treat it as so. At the final of the analysis we will compare the results and we will chose the less harmfully knee prosthesis, the analysis will be performed to find what the metallic pole will do to the knee prosthesis and not what the knee prosthesis will do to the human bone
