## Abstract Implant loosening is a common indication for total hip replacement (THR) revision. High contact forces and implant twisting moments are thought to be associated with implant loosening. Relationships between joint positioning and hip forces, or outcomes, have been investigated through in

## Abstract The patellofemoral (PF) joint plays an essential role in knee function, but little is known about the in vivo loading conditions at the joint. We hypothesized that the forces at the PF joint exceed the tibiofemoral (TF) forces during activities with high knee flexion. Motion analysis wa
Contact study of the human hip joint was performed in order to understand load-deformation pattern under compressive loading, contact area and contact pressure by our method. Weight-bearing function of the hip joint was confirmed. Deformation of articular cartilage and subchondral bone were made rea
