Question
Summarize the problem…
What is J when the acetabulum is moved
medially on a patient standing on their right leg
given the information on the next slide?
Collect Information
• Non-medial
• Distance A = 50 mm =
0.05 m
• Distance B = 100 mm =
0.1 m
• J = Resultant Hip Joint
Force = 1800 N
• AT = Abductor Tension =
1200 N
• FBW = Body weight at
pubis = 5/6 x BW = 5/6 x
720 N = 600 N
• Medial
• Distance A = 50 mm =
0.05 m
• Distance B = 50 mm =
0.05m
• J = Resultant Hip Joint
Force = UNKNOWN
• AT = Abductor Tension =
UNKNOWN
• FBW = Body weight at
pubis = 5/6 x BW = 5/6 x
720 N = 600 N
Assumptions?
• Assumptions for this problem include:
• 1) This material exhibits ideal behavior for the models
used. This is termed a LEHI material.
• 2) 2D problem: this simplifies calculation of forces
• 3) Ignore all other forces: just focusing on the hip.
• 4) Hip in static equilibrium: allows for calculations to be
set to zero.
• 5) Forces are perpendicular to moment arm: this
eliminates the need for force calculations regarding
different angles, although some problems might
contain angles this one does not.
