Sliding Contact Fatigue Damage of Metallic Implants in a Simulated Body Fluid Environment
At the modular interface of the joint implants, repeated contact stresses in a corrosive synovial environment cause surface degradation that worsens over time. The lubricating mechanisms at the joints are altered by the deteriorated synovial fluid by the wear debris and corrosion products. As a resu...
