Abstract

This study explores how material selection and modularity influence the fatigue life of tibial trays
in knee replacements. As tibial trays play a crucial role in the longevity and performance of knee
implants, understanding these factors is pivotal for improving surgical outcomes. The background
emphasizes the importance of optimizing tibial tray design to enhance patient mobility and implant
durability. Methodologically, experimental setups and data collection techniques are detailed,
highlighting how various materials and modular configurations were tested under simulated
physiological conditions. Results present comparative analyses of fatigue resistance across
different materials and modular designs, supported by statistical findings and visual
representations. The conclusion synthesizes key findings, emphasizing implications for future
orthopedic practices and advancements in implant technology. By elucidating the intricate
relationship between material properties, modularity, and fatigue performance, this research
contributes to the ongoing evolution of knee replacement surgeries towards improved patient care
and long-term implant success.
