Contact mechanics of modular metal-on-polyethylene total hip replacement under adverse edge loading conditions

Edge loading can negatively impact the biomechanics and long-term performance of hip replacements. Although edge loading has been widely investigated for hard-on-hard articulations, limited work has been conducted for hard-on-soft combinations. The aim of the present study was to investigate edge lo...
