Effects of Bone Deformation on Patient-Specific Finite Element Predictions of Hip Chondrolabral Mechanics

This repository contains a set of finite element models used to evaluate how different bone material representations influence patient-specific finite element predictions of hip chondrolabral mechanics during physiological activities. Subject-specific models with rigid, homogeneous deformable, and CT-derived heterogeneous bone properties were compared to determine their effects on cartilage and labral contact mechanics, including contact pressure, strain, and contact area.
