Stresses on ceramic head
Research in a field of shoulder endoprostheses is focused on two problems: Firstly, an application of a β-titan alloy for a construction of a stem and secondly, application of Zirconia ceramics for humeral head replacement. Based on a deep research, boundary conditions measured in-vivo are used for the finite element simulations.
