Figure 10
Distribution of global displacement around implants loaded with 200 N axial vertical force [12]: cylindrical implant without friction between implant and bone (a), threaded implant without friction between implant and bone (b), threaded implant with friction between implant and bone (coefficient of friction: 0.3) (c), and threaded implant with force fit between implant and bone (d).
