Numerical simulation of a crack emanating from a micro-cavity in the orthopedic cement by technical sub modeling of total hip prosthesis

PMMA has important micro structural heterogeneities such as cavities, and its elastic behavior is greatly affected by the presence of defects that may imply its weakening and cause failure. In areas of high concentrations of stress and due to the presence of cavities, micro cracks appear after crush...
