Öğe Numerical and experimental stress analysis of a polymeric composite hip joint prosthesis(John Wiley & Sons Inc, 1996) Akay, M; Aslan, NA comparative stress analysis of a polymeric composite hip joint replacement was performed. A prototype short carbon-fiber reinforced PEEK (CF/PEEK) prosthesis was manufactured by injection molding. Finite element (FE) analysis was conducted on intact femurs and femurs fitted with the CF/PEEK and the titanium prostheses under various loading conditions. FE models were validated by experimental strain gauge measurements by using synthetic femurs. There was a good agreement between the two methods except in the hoop strain of the femur in the calcar region because of the assumption of the isotropic material properties. The stem stresses were lower for the CF/PEEK prosthesis than for the titanium prosthesis. The maximum stress was in the spigot of the CF/PEEK prosthesis, but in the middle third of the stem of the titanium prosthesis. Stress generated in the cement was almost equal for both prostheses although more load was transferred, via cement, to the femur with the CF/PEEK prosthesis because the load transfer took place over a larger area. An out-of-plane component of the joint load causes higher prosthesis and cement stresses. (C) 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
