Original Abstract

A lot of disorders of the hip, especially in young patients, can be treated with a suitable osteotomy, which is based on the improvement of mechanical conditions in the hip joint. The surface replacement has also been developed as an alternative to a total hip replacement for young and more active people. Two finite element (FE) models are presented in this paper. The first one offers solutions to the strain-stress analysis of the physiological hip joint. The second one enables us to investigate strain and stress parameters in the hip joint with applied surface replacement.

Key words in English

Finite element method, FEM, hip joint, contact pressure, surface replacement
