With the increase of elderly population and the health problems arising nowadays, such as
cancer, knee and hip joint prostheses are widely used worldwide. It is estimated that 20% of …

CoCrMo alloy has long been used as a pairing femoral head material for articular joint
implant applications because of its biocompatibility and reliable tribological performance …

Silicoalumiophosphates (SAPOs) are microporous crystalline materials extensively utilized
as adsorbents and catalysts. The present work utilized two strategies to synthesize …

The paper introduces an experimental investigation of frictional behaviour of materials used
for joint replacements. The measurements were performed using a ball-on-disc tribometer …

Total hip replacement (THR) is one of the most important attainments in the orthopedic
applications. Remarkable researches have been made to design new generation of effective …

To understand the possible lubricant mechanism in ceramic-on-ceramic hip joint prostheses,
biochemical reactions of the synovial fluid and the corresponding frictional coefficients were …

Clearance is one of the most influential parameters on the tribological performance of metal-
on-metal (MOM) hip joints and its selection is a subject of considerable debate. The …

To research the friction and wear of silicon nitride ceramic with bovine serum albumin
lubricant, the tribological properties of silicon nitride ceramic against stainless steel were …

CoCrMo alloy has long been used as a pairing femoral head material for articular joint
implant applications because of its biocompatibility and reliable tribological performance …

Orthopedic implants still have limitations regarding their durability, despite being in use for
over fifty years. Particles arising from wear due to the relative motion of their surfaces remain …
