Probabilistic finite element analysis of the uncemented hip replacement-effect of femur characteristics and implant design geometry

In the present study, a probabilistic finite element tool was assessed using an uncemented total hip replacement model. Fully bonded and frictional interfaces were investigated for combinations of three proximal femurs and two implant designs, the Proxima short stem and the IPS hip stem prostheses....
