Metal injection molding (MIM) is one of the most widely used manufacturing processes
worldwide as it is a cost-effective way of producing a variety of dental and orthopedic …

Fretting corrosion of as received and shot peened zirconium alloys exposed to high
temperature high pressure water is tested. High resolution characterization techniques are …

CoCrMo alloys are extensively used in the field of artificial knee joints. However, wear
performance is one of the most important problems of artificial knee joints, limiting service …

The important issue associated with the design and the fabrication of the titanium and
titanium alloy implants is the increase of their biointegration with bone tissue. In the …

Delamination wear leads to a surge in the wear loss of the carbon strip. It also has a
significant influence on the physicochemical properties of the contact pairs in the …

In this study, the fatigue crack initiation behaviour and fatigue crack initiation life of the Ti-6Al-
4 V alloy, which had circular and slender grains, were quantitatively evaluated based on slip …

Abstract A hydroxyapatite (HAp)/copper (Cu) coating was deposited on a Ta substrate by
plasma spraying to mitigate the fretting wear of bones. It was found that the HAp/Cu coating …

The aim of the article is focused on assessing the degree of end-of-life for the vehicle front
suspension beam. The first stage of the problem taken was represented by a road test of the …

Fretting wear damage of high-strength titanium fasteners has caused a large number of
disastrous accidents. Traditionally, it is believed that both high strength and excellent …
