     porous titanium is a promising orthopedic implant material. as a potential use in total hip replacement, the effect of a porous titanium femoral prosthesis on bone remodeling is investigated in this paper. the stress and strain fields of a post-operative femur with a hip replacement are calculated by applying the three-dimensional finite element method. the effect of the implant material on the bone remodeling is evaluated by analyzing the loss of bone density following a strain magnitude based bone remodeling theory. different implant materials, including currently used solid cobalt–chrome and solid titanium, potential porous titanium with different porosities, are considered in this study. this investigation confirms that bone loss around the implant strongly depends on the value of the elastic modulus of the prosthesis. there will be a sharp drop of the volume of the bone with density loss if a cobalt–chrome implant is replaced by a porous titanium implant. the numerical results show that both of the bone volume with density loss and the bone density loss rate decrease linearly with the increase of the porosity. however, increasing porosity will reduce the strength of porous titanium. with regard to material design for porous titanium-based femoral prosthesis, stress analysis is required to meet the strength requirement.
