“…In this work, the size of the femoral head, acetabular cup, and backing cup is 28 mm, 4 mm, and 2 mm, respectively [25]. A wide range of materials are used by researchers, with the most common ones being stainless steel, titanium alloys, and cobalt-chromium alloys [26,27]. In this work, we concentrate on the static and fatigue analysis of the stem with the materials, as shown in Table 1 all materials used in this work are assumed to have homogeneous, isotropic, and linear elastic properties, taking into account Young's modulus and Poisson ratio [28].…”

Patient-specific dynamic loadings are seldom considered during the evaluation of hip implants. The primary objective of this study is to check for the feasibility of the use of UHMWPE as the material for an acetabular cup over CoCr Alloy that is reported to produce a squeaking sound after replacement. An elliptical shaped stem with three different cross-sectional profiles is considered for simulation. Using a commercial finite element method, patient-specific dynamic forces were applied for the quantitative analysis. The loading and boundary conditions are used as per ISO and ASTM standards. The walking gait cycle is used with two widely used biocompatible materials: titanium and cobalt-chromium. Initially, only the stem is considered for the analysis to finalize the best out of the three profiles, along with the better material for the stem. Later the complete implant is used for the analysis. Profile 1 exhibits 1.25 and 1.17 times greater stress than Profile 2 for CoCr Alloy and Ti–6Al–4V, respectively. Similarly, Profile 3 displays stresses 1.26 and 1.25 times greater than Profile 2 for CoCr Alloy and Ti–6Al–4V, respectively. Comparatively, displacement in stem Profile 2 is 1.75 times higher in Ti–6Al–4V than CoCr Alloy. The full implant displacement at 14% gait cycle is 1.15% higher for the CoCr-acetabular column material combination when compared to UHMWPE. It can be concluded that UHMWPE can be used as the acetabular cup material instead of CoCr for the Profile 2 elliptical shaped hip implant to prevent squeaking after replacement

“…Figure 1: Different implant shapes and profiles [38,41] The hip implant consists of a stem, femoral head, backing cup and acetabular liner. The materials used for these parts include stainless steel, titanium alloys and cobalt-chromium alloys [44,45]. This study focuses on the fatigue analysis of the entire hip implant with three different materials namely titanium alloys, cobalt-chromium alloys and UHMWPE.…”

Fatigue failure is one of the causes of the failure of hip implants. The main objective of this work is to carry out fatigue failure analysis on different hip profiles and compare the outcomes for various combinations of materials. Three profiles each for circular, oval, elliptical, and trapezoidal stems are utilized for this study with four different material combinations consisting of materials like Ti–6Al–4V, CoCr Alloy and UHMWPE. CATIA V-6 is used for the modelling of these implants and the fatigue analysis using Goodman's mean stress theory is simulated using ANSYS 2022 R1. ISO 7206-4 and ASTM F2996-13 standards are used to define the boundary conditions. A total of 48 combinations were studied across four different shapes, three different profiles and four different material combi-nations to deduce the best possible combination for a hip implant for static and fatigue loading. Comparison of the implants is based on the factors like equivalent von Mises stress, displacement, equivalent elastic strain, fatigue life, safety factor and equivalent alternating stress. Profile 2 of the trapezoidal-shaped hip implant with a Ti–6Al–4V stem exhibited superior results both under static and fatigue loading conditions. Compared to displacements obtained for profiles one and three, profile 2 trapezoidal stem with Ti–6Al–4V and other parts as CoCr Alloy has about 72% lower displacement. Based on the findings, profile 2 with a trapezoidal stem made of Ti–6Al–4V and an acetabular cup made of CoCr shows the enhanced results over the other combinations considered.

“…They were initially employed as a biomaterial for hip repair applications in 1926, and the first complete hip replacement was performed in 1938. 110 Stainless steel is classified into three primary types: ferritic (BCC), martensitic (FCC), and austenitic steel (FCC). Austenitic steels (316 and 316L) have excellent biological properties and are widely used in biomedical applications.…”

Developing biomaterials for hip prostheses is challenging and requires dedicated attention from researchers. Hip replacement is an inevitable and remarkable orthopedic therapy for enhancing the quality of patient life for those who have arthritis as well as trauma. Generally, five types of hip replacement procedures are successfully performed in the current medical market: total hip replacements, hip resurfacing, hemiarthroplasty, bipolar, and dual mobility systems. The average life span of artificial hip joints is about 15 years, and several studies have been conducted over the last 60 years to improve the performance and thereby increase the lifespan of artificial hip joints. Present-day prosthetic hip joints are linked to the wide availability of biomaterials. Metals, ceramics, and polymers are some of the most promising types of biomaterials; nevertheless, each biomaterial has advantages and disadvantages. Metals and ceramics fail in most applications owing to stress shielding and the emission of wear debris; ongoing research is being carried out to find a remedy to these unfavorable responses. Recent research found that polymers and composites based on polymers are significant alternative materials for artificial joints. With growing research and several biomaterials, recent reviews lag in effectively addressing hip implant materials' individual mechanical, tribological, and physiological behaviors. This Review comprehensively investigates the historical evolution of artificial hip replacement procedures and related biomaterials' mechanical, tribological, and biological characteristics. In addition, the most recent advances are also discussed to stimulate and guide future researchers as they seek more effective methods and synthesis of innovative biomaterials for hip arthroplasty application.
