Finite element modelling of the healthy wrist joint

The finite element method was used to perform contact analysis in the wrist joint, thus requires its model construction preceding any analyses. The steps and procedures are as explained in this chapter. The three-dimensional model of the healthy wrist was constructed from the CT images of a healthy...
