Abstract |
|
A knee replacement surgery has become popular worldwide and has a high success rate. In some cases, the degradation of the implant can happen due to the decoration of ultrahigh molecule weight polyethylene (UHMWPE). To overcome these problems the paper describe a possible solution for monitoring implant integrity. An implant material has encased the magneto elastic property of amorphous ribbon with UHMWPE. To stimulate knee insert, they were subject to various tensile stresses by applying AC magnetic field. This resulted in the stress caused to produce an inductance changes nearby magnetizing winding. These implant were designed according to the complexity, durability, biocompatibility and tensile strength, etc. The result obtained describes that the proposed sensor has sufficient sensitivity for measuring stress level, flexibility and weight of the implant associated in tibia inserts. |
