Interface micromotion failure simulation of cementless hip prosthesis

The most commonly reported failure modes of cementless hip stems are loosening and thigh pain; both are attributed to the relative motion at the bone-implant interface due to failure to achieve sufficient primary fixation. Accurate predictions of hip stems’ stability are therefore crucial to the p...
