Effect of osteoporosis-related reduction in the mechanical properties of bone on the acetabular fracture during a sideways fall: a parametric finite element approach
Purpose The incidence of acetabular fractures due to low-energy falls is increasing among
the geriatric population. Studies have shown that several biomechanical factors such as …

Effect of impact velocity, flooring material, and trochanteric soft-tissue quality on acetabular fracture during a sideways fall: a parametric finite element approach
Featured Application The results of this study can be used in designing prevention strategies
for low-energy acetabular fractures. Also, it could help to cut the huge associated costs …
