In implants, sensors are made of an acrylic-like plastic, while polyethylene (PE) inserts are made of ultra-high-molecular-weight PE (UHMPE). Thus, the stress distribution on the sensor may be different from that on the PE insert due to variations in material properties. The present study sought to analyze and compare the stress distribution profile between the sensor and PE insert after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Finite element analysis was performed to estimate contact stress between the sensor and PE insert after TKA. The mater
