Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 3Design and Manufacturing of a Hip Joint Motion Simulator With a Novel Modular Design Approach(Springer, 2023) Torabnia, Shams; Mihçin, Şenay; Lazoğlu, İsmailThe study is aimed to develop a hip joint wear simulator using a modular design approach to help experimentally monitor and control critical wear parameters to validate in-silico wear models. The proper control and application of wear parameters such as the range of motion, and the applied force values while estimating the lost material due to wear are essential for thorough analysis of wear phenomena for artificial joints. The simulator's dynamics were first modeled, then dynamic loading data was used to calculate the forces, which were further used for topology optimization to reduce the forces acting on each joint. The reduction of the link weights, connected to the actuators, intends to improve the quality of motion transferred to the femoral head. The modular design approach enables topology-optimized geometry, associated gravitational and dynamic forces, resulting in a cost-effective, energy-efficient product. Moreover, this design allows integration of the subject specific data by allowing different boundary conditions following the requirements of industry 5.0. Overall, the in-vitro motion stimulations of the hip-joint prosthesis and the modular design approach used in the study might help improve the accuracy and the effectiveness of wear simulations, which could lead into the development of better and longer-lasting joint prostheses for all. The subject-specific and society-based daily life data implemented as boundary conditions enable inclusion of the personalized effects. Next, with the results of the simulator, CEN Workshop Agreement (CWA) application is intended to cover the personalized effects for previously excluded populations, providing solution to inclusive design for all.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 26Optimization of Hip Implant Designs Based on Its Mechanical Behaviour(Springer, 2022) Göktaş, Hasan; Subaşı, Eda; Uzkut, Metin; Kara, Mustafa; Biçici, Hamit; Shirazi, Hadi; Mihçin, ŞenayTotal Hip Arthroplasty (THA) is one of the best advancements in healthcare. THA is required when the hip joint causes immobility and pain. The designed hip implants vary in geometry with different geometrical parameters. The geometry plays an important role in the mechanical behavior of the hip implant. In this study, the optimum selection of hip implant under static loading was evaluated using Finite Element Modeling (FEM). Hip implants with three different stem cross-sections including. (a) elliptic, (b) oval, and (c) trapezoidal were designed using a commercial Computer-Aided Design (CAD) software package. The FEM analysis was carried out via ANSYS R2019 to assess the key mechanical parameters of the implants such as stress distribution and deformation. The results were evaluated for the best stress and strain values. The optimum design had equivalent stress (von Misses) of 258,1 MPa, equivalent strain of 0.004, with total deformation of 0.24 mm and frictional stress of 0.362 MPa producing best values for trapezoidal cross-sectioned design. The findings of this study provided an insight into the selection of appropriate hip implant design with certain geometric design parameters to produce optimum results in clinical applications. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 14Mechanical Investigation for the Use of Polylactic Acid in Total Hip Arthroplasty Using Fem Analysis(Springer, 2022) Çelik, Emre; Alemdar, Furkan; Batı, Murat; Daşdemir, Muhammed Furkan; Büyükbayraktar, Onur Alp; Chethan, K.N.; Mihçin, ŞenayPolylactic acid (PLA) is a biodegradable non-toxic, biocompatible polymer used as a popular filament material in biomedical applications with the advance of 3D printing technologies. PLA is considered a suitable implant material due to its contribution to bone regeneration. In this study, the use of PLA in Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) as a liner material was assessed. In this regard, the PLA liner with different material combinations in THA was examined to provide evidence for its potential. The hip implant prototypewas drawn using a computer-aided design tool then transferred into a commercial finite element analysis (FEA) software. The prototypesconsisted of assemblies of PLA with titanium, chrome cobalt, stainless steels, dense NiTi shape-alloys, and Alumina-Zirconia. Simulations were run under static loading conditions. To evaluate and compare the results for the optimum design; factor of safety, total deformation and von Mises stress analysis were used. The results show that Co-Cr implemented implants produce the highest factor of safety. When Al-Zi combined with PLA, it produced least deformation and reasonable von- Mises stress values. PLA might perform best when used with Al-Zi. As a next step, experimental pre-clinical tests are planned to assess the clinical potential. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
