Abstract: Modelling the femur bone and study of fracture analysis is important to understand orthogonal properties of the bone and is the way to find the compact results in order to initiate the new researches for dealing with the complex structures at both macro and micro level in this field. The main focus of this study is bone’s orthogonal properties and effect on bone’s mechanical properties at specific loading conditions. The fracture will be dealt through initiating crack on the body of femur under XFEM Crack Growth using Abaqus, modelling was done through MIMICS and stress and deformation analysis was carried out. This research includes stress strain analysis and also shows the biomechanical properties of bone and its composition along with applications of biomechanics in aerospace industry . The mechanical analysis shows equivalent elastic strain about 1.5 × 10-3 to 1.7 × 10-3 . Dimensions were taken in millimetres.

Keywords: Femur bone; XFEM; fracture analysis, crack growth, biomechanical properties.
