Design Optimization of a Total Hip Prosthesis for Wear Reduction
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Aseptic loosening from polyethylene debris is the leading cause of failure for metal-on-polyethylene hip implants. The accumulation of wear debris can lead to osteolysis, the degradation of bone ...
Total Hip Wear Assessment: A Comparison Between Computational and In Vitro Wear Assessment Techniques Using ISO 14242 Loading and Kinematics
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In the present study a direct comparison was made between in vitro total hip wear testing and a computational analysis considering the effects of time and a nonlinear stress-strain relationship ...
