Table III.

Mean measures for similarity of stress distribution (%), percentage of interface area underloaded compared to the native case (%), maximum stress (MPa) in total knee arthroplasty, and the total load measured across the whole bone-implant interface (N). T0 refers to the conventional implant; T1 to T4 refers to the additively manufactured implants as given in Table I.
