Resumo: | Material selection is one of the most relevant and challenging steps in engineering projects. In this study, we focused on selecting polymers with low density and stiffness for upper limb orthoses that help in the recovery of patients who have undergone cerebrovascular accident (CVA). CES EduPack 2011 software was used to compare the density and Young's modulus of different polymers. The merit index aided in the classification of these materials, which were applied to 3D orthosis models for computer simulations in FreeCAD 0.19.4 software. Using the simulation data, a decision matrix was developed using the Pahl & Beitz method to classify polymers according to the weighted property index. The decision matrix using the simulated and merit index data indicated polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polylactic acid (PLA) as the best polymers for upper limb orthoses. The weighted property index values were 127.34 and 123.19, respectively. It is noteworthy that polyethylene terephthalate glycol (PETG - adaptation of PET) is an alternative to 3D printing filaments, and PLA is one of the main filaments. |

En este estudio, el enfoque está en la selección de polímeros de baja densidad y buena rigidez para ortesis de miembros superiores que ayuden en la recuperación de pacientes que han sufrido un accidente cerebrovascular. Se utilizó el software CES EduPack 2011 para comparar la densidad y el módulo de Young de diferentes polímeros. El índice de mérito ayudó en la clasificación de estos materiales, que se aplicaron a modelos de órtesis 3D para simulaciones por computadora en el software FreeCAD 0.19.4. A partir de los datos de simulación, se desarrolló una matriz de decisión utilizando el método de Pahl & Beitz para clasificar los polímeros según el índice de propiedad ponderado. La matriz de decisión que utilizó los datos del índice de mérito y simulado mostró que el tereftalato de polietileno (PET) y el ácido poliláctico (PLA) eran los mejores polímeros para ortesis de miembros superiores. Los valores del índice de propiedad ponderado fueron 127,34 y 123,19, respectivamente. Cabe destacar que el polietilen tereftalato glicol (PETG - derivado del PET) es una alternativa para los filamentos de impresión 3D, además de que el PLA es uno de los principales filamentos.A seleção de materiais é uma das etapas mais relevantes e desafiadoras nos projetos de engenharia.

CES EduPack 2011 software was used to compare the density and Young's modulus of different polymers. The merit index aided in the classification of these materials, which were applied to 3D orthosis models for computer simulations in FreeCAD 0.19.4 software. Using the simulation data, a decision matrix was developed using the Pahl & Beitz method to classify polymers according to the weighted property index. The decision matrix using the simulated and merit index data indicated polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polylactic acid (PLA) as the best polymers for upper limb orthoses. The weighted property index values were 127.34 and 123.19, respectively.
