This book highlights the critical challenge of improving the design and performance of hip implants, which are essential for enhancing patient outcomes in hip replacement surgeries. The book focuses on utilizing Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to optimize implant designs, ensuring they can withstand complex mechanical loads and reduce the risk of failure. It is hoped that readers will gain a deeper understanding of the significance of implant design and the role of FEA in predicting and enhancing implant performance, ultimately leading to better, more durable solutions in orthopedic surgeries.
