Analogous to ASTM F2996, which simulates the physical testing of ISO 7206-4, EndoLab has developed a protocol to evaluate the static implant stresses and strains of non-modular metallic orthopaedic hip stem designs in the femoral neck region. The boundary conditions are setup according to ISO 7206-6.

The verification and validation of computational models is an essential component for an accurate simulation. To establish model credibility, EndoLab follows the guidelines described in ASME V&V40.
