Computational modeling of hip implants 413
a micro-separation of 100 µ m, the maximum contact pressure is approx-
imately constant. It is worth noting that the usual micro-separation is
beyond 1 mm. The link from micro to macro should take into account both
the material characteristics (grains and the intergranular zones) and the
mechanical stresses in order to achieve the ultimate aim: improving the
performance of both materials-design aspects and the lifetime of implants.
