Development of a Hip Joint Socket by Finite-Element-Based Analysis for Mechanical Assessment

Development of a Hip Joint Socket by Finite-Element-Based Analysis for Mechanical Assessment

This article evaluates a hip joint socket design by finite element method (FEM). The study was based on the needs and characteristics of a patient with an oncological amputation; however, the solution and the presented method may be generalized for patients with similar conditions. The research aime...
