A Combined Geometric Morphometric and Discrete Element Modeling Approach for Hip Cartilage Contact Mechanics

A Combined Geometric Morphometric and Discrete Element Modeling Approach for Hip Cartilage Contact Mechanics

Finite element analysis (FEA) provides the current reference standard for numerical simulation of hip cartilage contact mechanics. Unfortunately, the development of subject-specific FEA models is a laborious process. Owed to its simplicity, Discrete Element Analysis (DEA) provides an attractive alte...
