In replacement surgery of the hip joint, an implant is replaced into the natural femur which
recreates the articulation and functionally of a natural joint. Total hip replacement is …

Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a common procedure that is performed for elderly people who
suffer from hip pain and other hip-related problems. THA is an operation where an artificial …

In this investigation an approach to fretting fatigue life prediction is developed with
consideration of damage-coupled elastic–plastic constitutive model and wear. Nonlinear …

The paper presents the effect of the machining parameters and cooling strategies on the
wear behavior of the wrought and Additive Manufactured Ti6Al4V used for biomedical …

Submarine power cables (SPCs) for floating offshore wind turbines (FOWT) have received
relatively little attention compared to the structural design of wind turbines. This is …

Powder bed fusion is an additive manufacturing technology used to create functional
industrial parts and complex 3D geometries, layer by layer, which are not feasible using …

A finite element model, considered for the wear profile evolution of a threaded surface, is
proposed to simulate the self-loosening of bolted joints under transverse loading. The …

In this paper, a finite element model for the prediction of fretting fatigue crack initiation in the
full-scale railway axle was proposed, which took into account the influence of the stress …

Taperosis/trunnionosis is a scientific term for describing tribocorrosion (fretting corrosion) at
the head-neck taper junction of hip implants where two contacting surfaces are undergone …
