Rice model could help clinicians personalize hip joints Rice University engineers hope to make life better for those with replacement joints by modeling how artificial hips are likely to rub them the wrong way. The computational study by the Brown School of Engineering lab of mechanical engineer Fred Higgs simulates and tracks how hips evolve, uniquely incorporating fluid dynamics and roughness of the joint surfaces as well as factors clinicians typically use to predict how well implants will s...

Modeling how artificial hips hold up over time could make life better for people with replacement joints, researchers report. Their new computational study simulates and tracks how hips evolve, uniquely incorporating fluid dynamics and roughness of the joint surfaces, as well as factors clinicians typically use to predict how well implants will stand up over their expected 15-year lifetime. The researchers’ immediate goal is to advance the design of more robust prostheses. Ultimately, they sa...

It incorporates... view more  Credit: Wikipedia HOUSTON - (Jan. 11, 2021) - Rice University engineers hope to make life better for those with replacement joints by modeling how artificial hips are likely to rub them the wrong way.
