The Analysis of Hip Joint Prosthesis Head Microstructure Changes during Variable Stress State as a Result of Human Motor Activity

Article Preview

Abstract:

The paper present the analysis of metal prosthesis head stress state of hip joint endoprosthesis which is a result of variable loads during human motor activity and its influence on the erosion of materials. The analysis of stress state was made with use of FEM – ADINA numerical tool. The analysis of surface erosion process was made with use of the scanning electron microscope. To the researches was taken for heads from CoCrMo bearing shell and polyethylene UHMWPE.
