- Abstract: This study was designed to test the hypothesis that: "A properly designed implant that harnesses the principle of the incompressibility of fluids can improve the weight carrying ability of an amputee's residual femur and reduce the frictional forces at the stump external socket interface." The hypothesis was tested both mechanically on an Amputee Simulation Device (ASD) and through Finite Element Analysis (FEA) modeling software. With the implant attached to the femur, the FEA and ASD demonstrated that the femur carried 90% and 93% respectively of the force of walking. Without the implant, the FEA model and ASD femur carried only 35% and 77%, respectively, of the force of walking. Statistical calculations reveal three (3) degrees of separation (99% probability of non-random significant difference) between with and without implant data points. FEA modeling demonstrates that the normal contact forces and shear forces are pushed the distal weight-bearing area of the amputee stump, relieving the lateral stump of frictional forces. The ASD mechanical and FEA modeling data validate each other with both systems supporting the hypotheses with confidence intervals of three degrees of separation between with implant and without implant models.
