Finite Element Analysis of Mechanical Stability of Ceramic Acetabular Components and Evaluation of ROM in Articulating Hip Joints

Ceramic articular surfaces are now widely used as total hip replacements for young and active patients. However, while the excellent tribological properties and high biocompatibility of ceramic articular surfaces prevent loosening and osteolysis, their high stiffness and low ductility occasionally r...
