MODIFYING AND EXPANDING THE SIMULATION OF WEAR IN THE SPHERICAL JOINT WITH A POLYMERIC COMPONENT OF THE TOTAL HIP PROSTHESIS

The existing model of wear, based on the classical Archard equation, in the spherical joint of a total hip prosthesis comprising an acetabular cup of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) in combination with a metal or ceramic femoral head is modified and expanded. With this model, studi...
