Abstract : The main aim is to develop the three dimensional solid finite element model of knee joint to predict stress in its individual components (Femur, Tibia, Fibula and Menisci) and to determine the load carried by a pre – selected ligamentous tissue. This work assists to analyze a knee response to a dynamically applied load. This simulated analysis will serve to be an alternative approach to destructive tests and intrusive procedures and helps to achieve closer simulation to reality. The main expectation is to simulate the whole articulation using three dimensional solid models. This paper will aid to control the geometry of movements of knee joint. This Modeling will be helpful to study underlying mechanisms for knee injuries. Keywords- Displacement, Finite Element Model, Knee Joint, Stress.
