Abstract

The paper deals with modelling of total knee replacement (arthroplasty, TKA). Model includes the calculation of pressure distribution in synovial fluid, which is located in the gap between the femoral and tibial components of the arthroplasty.

The synovial fluid is modelled as non-Newtonian fluid.
