A Mixed Elasto-Hydrodynamic Lubrication Model for Wear Calculation in Artificial Hip Joints
The aim of this paper was to propose a novel in silico mixed elasto-hydrodynamic lubrication model with the purpose of wear prediction in Total Hip Replacements (THRs). The model considers the progressive wear contribution in the calculation of the meatus filled by the non-Newtonian synovial fluid....
