Friction in Total Hip Joint Prosthesis Measured In Vivo during Walking

Friction-induced moments and subsequent cup loosening can be the reason for total hip joint replacement failure. The aim of this study was to measure the in vivo contact forces and friction moments during walking. Instrumented hip implants with Al(2)O(3) ceramic head and an XPE inlay were used. In v...
