陶瓷髋关节球头与臼杯分离引起边缘负载的动力学仿真模拟.

BACKGROUND: The edge load contact caused by joint separation causes great stress concentration and then produces a large amount of wear. The edge contact caused by hip joint separation is a dynamic process of femoral head touching the rim of the acetabulum and sliding into the acetabulum quickly, so a dynamic contact mechanical model is needed. OBJECTIVE: To obtain the dynamic mechanical simulation model of ceramic acetabulum under the edge load contact, so as to provide the contact mechanics foundation for the wear analysis of hip joint under the condition of edge load, and provide theoretical basis for prosthesis design and surgeon operation. METHODS: By using 3D modeling software SolidWorks and dynamic simulation software ADAMS, edge load contact dynamics simulation model of ceramic femoral head and acetabular cup was established to verify the edge load contact deformation by numerical method. The effects of acetabular abduction angle and initial separation distance on edge load contact were analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) The contact stiffness coefficient used in the model is reasonable and effective. This model can be used to study the parameters that influence the edge load contact of hip joints. (2) The excessive cup inclination angle and initial separation distance will increase the severity of the edge load. (3) Acetabular cup inclination angle and initial separation distance are two important factors that affect the edge load contact. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
