Objective:
Research the acetabular component's construction method of a three-dimensional finite element model in THA with different angles and study the influence of polyethylene liner wearing with finite element analysis.
Methods:
Build a model in the 3D modeling software system HyperMesh according to the artificial hip joint prosthesis' entities and data. Using a finite element analysis system, ABAQUS 6.11 reconstitute acetabular prosthesis after hip replacement joints under different implanting position angles. Simulation and load the joint load when sheet foot touchdown state. Calculate the plastic volume strain and fatigue fracture.
Results:
The two groups of combinations of abduction angle 50° vs. anteversion angle 10° and abduction angle 55° vs. anteversion angle 15° have been found to have relatively smaller interface plastic strain and fatigue fracture volume value (2.241 × 10-7 m3, 2.443 × 10-7 m3), respectively.
Conclusion:
The groups of combinations of abduction angle 50° vs. anteversion angle 10° have been found to have relatively smallest interface plastic strain and fatigue fracture volume value in the total hip arthroplasty.
