Biomechanical Measurement Error Can Be Caused by Fujifilm Thickness: A Theoretical, Experimental, and Computational Analysis

FE modelling and analysis contact patches. (a) Contact without Fujifilm and (b) contact with Fujifilm. These results are for one load level (750 N), one half-cylinder size (50.8 mm diameter), and one material combination (MOP). Similar results were obtained at the same load and for the same cylinder size for MOM and MOB simulations. Contact width was defined as the total width for which there was physical touching of the cylinder with the plate and/or Fujifilm, which ended just prior to the start of the minimum surface stress zone.
