Abstract
The semi-empirical numerical model was developed with basic mechanical components (mass, spring, damper, hard stop, friction element) and the mallet force as input force. The aim was to get a better understanding of the force transmission during impaction scenarios in hip arthroplasty - in this specific case the assembly of the head taper junction. After validation with measurement data, simulation of a larger range of responding tissue properties than experimentally possible and the investigation of the influence of different surgical instruments could be performed.
