Figure 6

Progress of the average ABD over the computation steps for the five loading cases. Here, the evolutions of the average ABDs in the periprosthetic femur for all five examined loading cases (four static loading cases A, B, C and D plus the kinematic loading regime E, in which the whole gait cycle was examined) are presented. This figure shows that – however, the evolutions of the average ABDs are qualitatively similar – the simulations converge at different computation steps and that the final average ABDs after reaching convergence differ.
