Abstract Precise evaluation of hip fracture risk leads to reduce hip fracture occurrence
in individuals and assist to check the effect of a treatment. A subject-specific QCT-based
finite element model is introduced to evaluate hip fracture risk using the strain energy,
von-Mises stress, and von-Mises strain criteria during the single-leg stance and the
sideways fall configurations. Choosing a proper failure criterion in hip fracture risk
assessment is very important. The aim of this study is to define hip fracture risk index
using the strain energy, von Mises stress, and von Mises strain criteria and compare the… More >
