First approach to unilateral transfemoral amputees' contact mechanics

The stresses in the hip area have great importance because of their relationship to the health of the joint. Finite element models can predict contact between cartilages, however, contact patterns in unilateral transfemoral amputees have not yet been found in literature. We thus want to present an i...
