Computational Modeling of Hip Joint Mechanics
The hip joint is one of the largest weight bearing structures in the human body. While its efficient structure may lend to a lifetime of mobility, abnormal, repetitive loading of the hip is thought to result in osteoarthritis (OA). The etiology of hip OA is unknown however, due to the high loads this joint supports, mechanics have been implicated as the primary factor. Quantifying the relevant ...
متن کاملAltered Hip Mechanics and Patellofemoral Pain. A Review of Literature.
Patellofemoral pain (PFP) is a common knee disorder in orthopedic clinics. In the last decade, several investigations have considered the role of proximal factors in addition to local and distal factors in development of PFP. There is a hypothesis which suggests that impaired neuromuscular control and altered hip joint kinematic affect tibiofemoral and patellofemoral biomechanics. Hence, PFP ma...
متن کاملQuadriceps and hamstrings fatigue alters hip and knee mechanics.
Neuromuscular fatigue exacerbates abnormal landing strategies, which may increase noncontact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury risk. The synergistic actions of quadriceps and hamstrings (QH) muscles are central to an upright landing posture, though the precise effect of simultaneous fatigue of these muscles on landing and ACL injury risk is unclear. Elucidating neuromechanical responses t...
متن کاملContact mechanics and wear simulations of hip resurfacing devices using computational methods.
The development of computational and numerical methods provides the option to study the contact mechanics and wear of hip resurfacing devices. The importance of these techniques is justified by the extensive amount of testing and experimental work required to verify and improve current orthopaedic implant devices. As the demands for device longevity is increasing, it is as important as ever to ...
متن کاملExperimental validation of a new biphasic model of the contact mechanics of the porcine hip
Hip models that incorporate the biphasic behaviour of articular cartilage can improve understanding of the joint function, pathology of joint degeneration and effect of potential interventions. The aim of this study was to develop a specimen-specific biphasic finite element model of a porcine acetabulum incorporating a biphasic representation of the articular cartilage and to validate the model...
