In silico study on probing atomistic insights into structural stability and tensile properties of Fe-doped hydroxyapatite single crystals.

Hydroxyapatite (HA, CaPO(OH)) is a widely explored material in the experimental domain of biomaterials science, because of its resemblance with natural bone minerals. Specifically, in the bioceramic community, HA doped with multivalent cations (e.g.

Development and Validation of a Finite Element Model of Wear in UHMWPE Liner Using Experimental Data From Hip Simulator Studies.

The wear of acetabular liner is one of the key factors determining osseointegration and long-term performance of total hip joint replacement implants. The experimental measurements of wear in total hip replacement components are time and cost-intensive. While addressing this aspect, a finite element model of a hip joint bearing consisting of zirconia-toughened alumina femoral head and ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene liner was developed to predict the dynamic wear response of the liner.
