Investigation The Effect of Clearance and Body Weight on The Contact Pressure of Metal on PCU Hip Prosthesis using Finite Element Method
A common problem with artificial hip replacements is increased wear of the material in contact. Materials that are in contact result in contact pressure caused by the patient's daily activities so that it triggers wear. This study adopts a finite element method (FEM) to predict wear of the arti...
