Finite Element Simulation of NiTi Umbrella-Shaped Implant Used on Femoral Head under Different Loadings
In this study, an umbrella-shaped device that is used for osteonecrosis treatment is simulated. The femoral head is subjected to various complex loadings as a result of a person’s daily movements. Implant devices used in the body are made of shape memory alloy materials because of their remarkable r...
