The effects of impingement and dysplasia on stress distributions in the hip joint during sitting and walking: A finite element analysis

Soft tissue damage has been observed in hip joints with pathological geometries. Our primary goal was to study the relationship between morphological variations of the bony components of the hip and resultant stresses within the soft tissues of the joint during routine daily activities. The secondar...
