Biomechanical Aspects of Shoulder and Hip Articulations: A Comparison of Two Ball and Socket Joints
The shoulder and hip joints though essentially both are ball and socket joints, show structural variability to serve functional needs.study aims at revealing some of the structural and functional properties of each of the two joints regarding the factors that contribute to the stability of any joint...

The shoulder and hip joints though essentially both are ball and socket joints, show structural variability to serve functional needs.study aims at revealing some of the structural and functional properties of each of the two joints regarding the factors that contribute to the stability of any joint in the body, namely: bone, ligament, and muscleTwenty dried scapula, hip, humerus, and femur were used. The area of the articular surfaces was estimated by molding a sheet of dental wax. Using special graphics software, a novel procedure was described to calculate the area under the curve, which was postulated to indicate the degree of curvature. Tension test was applied using a testometric machine, which was locally modified to suit biological specimens. A finite element analysis was designed to study the articulating bones under different loading conditionsIn the hip joint, the area of the articular surface of the head of the femur and that of the lunate showed no significant statistical difference. For the shoulder joint, the articular areas of the head of the humerus and the glenoid were statistically different. No statistical significance was observed regarding curvature of the articular surfaces within both the hip and shoulder joints; however, the values were significantly different between the hip and shoulder.
