Abstract

The exploration of biomechanics and biotribology plays a crucial role in the understanding of the failure mechanism and function of total ankle arthroplasty (TAA). The main purpose of this study was to introduce the computational modelling of biomechanics and biotribology for an artificial ankle joint. Based on the development of a patient-specific musculoskeletal multibody dynamics model and finite element wear model, the patient-specific loads, motions, and wear of artificial ankle joint would be evaluated. The coupling analysis of the biomechanics and biotribology of the artificial ankle joint would provide a new platform in the development of TAA.
