Thanks Metalguy, your comment is noted... at present, I'm analysing the implant in an in vitro environment, but I'll be sure to find out whether the Ti alloy would act differently in vivo.
Thanks everyone for the information. TVP... would you be able to provide a resource for the fatigue info you stated? (I believe what you stated ;) ) It is just that I should use references in my report if I'm going to utilize Ti 6Al-4V data rather than Ti 6Al-7Nb (to show that it is...
Hi everyone.... What differences are there between the two medical implant titanium alloys Ti-6Al-7Nb and Ti-6Al-4V? I know in past, most used the latter, but I am aware of the former being used nowadays as well. In particular, is there any fatigue property differences between the two alloys...
Hi,
Would anyone be able to inform me where I can find fatigue characteristic info about Titanium 6% Aluminum 7% Niobium (alloy)? This is typically used in medical applications. In other words, i'd like to find out notch characteristics, endurance, surface def, etc specs. Thanks.
Hi Ansys Users,
Does anyone know how to change the colour of the Legend Text when in the postprocessor? The default colour is white, which of course, does not show when I switch to a white background (ideal for printing). I have discovered how to change the colour for most other 'entities'...
Hi,
I have a model of a structure which should have a Young's Modulus that is different when in tension than in compression. In essence, I have to assign 2 modulus values to the same model elements, and which modulus used depends on whether the model is experiencing compression or tension...

Hello,
I have attempted to import an IGES (assembly) model into ANSYS 5.7. My assembly consists of 2 components which were originally fixed in relation to each other (and in space). However, when I import this iges file into ANSYS, my two components are no longer aligned correctly since there...
