A rolling-gliding wear simulator for the investigation of tribological material pairings for application in total knee arthroplasty
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Material wear testing is an important technique in the development and evaluation of materials for use in implant for total knee arthroplasty. Since a knee joint induces a complex rolling-gliding movement, standardised material wear...
