Numerical analysis of stress distribution generated in spherical polyethylene inserts by knee joint endoprotheses’ sleds

The paper presents analysis of stress distribution in the friction node of knee joint endoprosthesis where sleds are made of various titanium alloys and CoCrMo cooperate with spherical polyethylene inserts. Currently used titanium alloys consists of Nb, Ta, Zr or Mo and with lesser value of Young’s...
