Finite Element Analysis of Femoral Implant Under Static Load

Abstract

Hip replacement surgery is one of the most common and most successfully performed surgeries. Hip is an important joint in the human body that provides us with ability to perform different daily activities (walking, running, etc.). In this paper we have analyzed biomechanics of femoral bone with cementless hip prosthesis. The goal was to analyze stress distribution of the implant and femur bone. For numerical calculations of the stress distribution we have used finite element analysis. Presented results include von Mises stress distribution and Maximum Principal Stress distribution.
