Paper ID S008 : Mechanical analysis of implant support in removable partial denture design applied a magnetic attachment

Thank you very much for your valuable report.
I think there are minimum principal stress and maximum principal stress in addition to Von Mises stress, but I would like you to tell me if there is a reason for conducting analysis using Von Mises stress in this study.

Thank you for your question.
The reason for using Von Mises stress is to evaluate where the stress concentration occurs in the analysis model. When conducting a detailed examination of a site where stress concentration occurs, we think that evaluation using minimum principal stress and maximum principal stress is necessary.
