Use of the Finite Element Method in the analysis of load of polyethylene inserts of knee joint endoprosthesis
The paper presents the numerical analysis of stress occurring in the most wearable parts of knee joint endoprostheses. That applies to the pair: sled - spherical insert. The Finite Elements Method makes it possible to calculate the stress in particular elements of the tested model. The interaction between the two parts of endoprosthesis takes place on a comparatively small contact surface.
