Finite element has been used for more than four decades to study and evaluate the
mechanical behaviour total joint replacements. In Huiskes seminal paper “Failed innovation …

Today, different implant designs exist in the market; however, there is not a clear
understanding of which are the best implant design parameters to achieve mechanical …

The use of finite element analysis (FEA) has grown to a more and more important method in
the field of biomedical engineering and biomechanics. Although increased computational …

Background There are several numerical investigations on bone remodelling after total hip
arthroplasty (THA) on the basis of the finite element analysis (FEA). For such computations …

In total hip arthroplasty (THA), short stemmed cementless implants are used because they
are thought to stimulate physiological bone remodeling and reduce stress shielding. We …

We investigated the incidence and degree of stress shielding and clinical and radiographic
results in 2 groups of patients. Fifty patients (60 hips) in each group were enrolled for a …

Fixed partial dentures (FPD) or dental bridges have been extensively utilised in
prosthodontic restoration. Despite considerable clinical success to date, there has been …

Aseptic loosening of the prosthesis is still a problem in artificial joint implants. The loosening
can be caused by, among other factors, resorption of the bone surrounding the prosthesis …

Abstract Background and Objective Numerous techniques for bone remodeling simulation
have been developed based on Wolff's law. However, most studies have been conducted …

Background The aim of this study is to assess the long-term outcomes of this specific stem in
patients younger than 50 years old, with regard to clinical and radiographic outcomes …
