Modeling and computing of stress and strain distribution in UHMW polyethylene elements of chosen artificial human joints

The aim of the study was to present numerical strength analysis of the virtual knee and hip joints for the most popular tribological pairs used in prosthetic arthroplasty based on the Finite Elements Method. FEM makes it possible to calculate the stress in particular elements of the tested models. T...
