Full-field in vitro measurements and in silico predictions of strain shielding in the implanted femur after total hip arthroplasty

Alterations in bone strain as a result of implantation may contribute towards periprosthetic bone density changes after Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA). Computational models provide full-field strain predictions in implant-bone constructs; however, these predictions should be verified using experimenta...
