Abstract: The research of the influence of bone reinforcement on the stress-strain state of bone tissue in the femoral neck is completed. It is shown, that the reinforcement decreases the intensity of the stress-strain state of bone tissue in the most dangerous areas. Recommendations about the procedure of reinforcement, location and geometry of implants are formulated according to these calculations. Results of the current research can justify the methods for preventing hip fractures due to the prior reinforcement in medical practice.

Keywords: femur, implant, reinforcement, geometric modeling, finite element method, stress-strain state.
