## Abstract PMMA polymerization is an exothermic phenomenon during which stresses and porosity are observed. An experimental model is devised to directly measure radial forces, to be converted to radial stresses, at the stem/cement interface, and temperatures at both interfaces during cement curing
## Abstract During cement curing in total hip arthroplasty, residual stresses are introduced in the cement mantle as a result of curing shrinkage, thermal shrinkage, and geometrical constraints. These high residual stresses are capable of initiating cracks in the mantle of cemented hip replacements
## Abstract Aseptic loosening of cemented joint prostheses remains a significant concern in orthopedic biomaterials. One possible contributor to cement loosening is the development of porosity, residual stresses, and local fracture of the cement that may arise from the __in‐situ__ polymerization of
## Abstract The strains in the cement mantle surrounding the cemented femoral component of a total hip replacement were measured __in vitro__, using strain gauges embedded within the cement mantle adjacent to the femoral component in femurs from cadavers under physiologic loads simulating both sing
A new hybrid fixation stem, named cementedlocked uncemented (CLU), for total hip arthroplasty was developed to achieve good initial stability. Primary stability is guaranteed by the cement which is injected into two pockets in the lateral area. This leaves a large surface available for long-term bio
