Original abstract
This article studies several aspects of problems associated with diseases of big joints. It is an introductory essay to another three articles that focus on solving various biomechanical problems in hip joint. Stress limit states on contact surfaces of the hip joint can be considered as a common denominator of all these problems. General analyses of these states are described in a separate part of this article. Other general analyses concern the complex of problems associated with diseases of big joints. The article includes a systemic conception of analysis of the applicability of biomechanics in solving therapeutic problems of big joints. As an illustrative example, the hip joint was selected.
