In this research program, a numerical method was developed to predict the progressive failure of a thick laminated composite femoral component for total hip arthroplasty. A 3-D global/local technique was used to capture the overall structural response of this system while also enabling the 3-D ply level stress state to be determined efficiently and accurately. Different failure criteria and different...
In total hip arthroplasty, concerns such as corrosion and stress shielding associated with stiff metallic femoral components have led to the development of low stiffness advanced fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite femoral components. Carbon fibre-reinforced polyetheretherketone (CF/PEEK) composite material is now one of the primary material systems being considered for composite hip stem development...
