Rolling Contact Fatigue and Static Compression Deformation of UHMWPE thrust bearing in water

In this study, the rolling contact fatigue tests were performed in order to investigate the effect of thrust load on life of UHMWPE bearings. Furthermore, the static compression tests were performed in order to investigate the effect of static load on deformation. It was found that thrust load contr...
