Predicting long-term wear performance of hard-on-hard bearing couples: effect of cup orientation.
Wear is the major cause of implant failure, resulting in expensive revision surgeries of total hip arthroplasty. Therefore, understanding of wear mechanism and its progression is crucial to improve the physiological performance of implants. This paper presents a three-dimensional (3D) finite element...
