Finite element analysis of primary stability in cementless tibial components with varying interference fits
These findings help explain why higher interference fits provided limited improvements in primary stability during experimental tests, despite differing predictions from simulations. This study enhances our understanding of bone-implant interactions and suggests that increasing interference fit does not necessarily improve implant stability. It also highlights the importance of incorporating complex loading conditions for more accurate primary stability assessment.
