Crack Propagation in the Tibia Bone within Total Knee Replacement Using the eXtended Finite Element Method
Understanding of fracture mechanics of the human knee structures within total knee replacement (TKR) allows a better decision support for bone fracture prevention. Numerous studies addressed these complex injuries involving the femur bones but the full macro-crack propagation from crack initiation t...
