Effect of an edge at cup rim on contact stress during micro-separation in ceramic-on-ceramic hip joints

Alumina ceramic total hip joint bearings have shown superior wear properties. The joint bearing may undergo adverse conditions such as micro-separation causing head contact on the cup rim. As a transition, an edge is formed between the cup bearing and the rim. The aim of this study was to predict th...
