Tribological studies of modern orthopaedic biomaterial combinations
Debris created during the wear of prosthetic joints is known to have an effect on the success of the implant. As such the factors affecting wear and lubrication need to be understood in order to reduce wear as much as possible in vivo. In this thesis a number of orthopaedic biomaterials were tested...
