Factors influencing press-fit acetabular cup failure : an experimentally validated finite element study

The work undertaken in this thesis uses finite element analysis to investigate the most critical causes of acetabular cup implant failure. To enable accurate conclusions from finite element analysis, three studies have been carried out to strengthen understanding and confidence in finite element mod...
