The Role of the Assembly Force in the Tribocorrosion Behaviour of Hip Implant Head-Neck Junctions: An Adaptive Finite Element Approach
The cyclic loading, in the corrosive medium of the human body, results in tribocorrosion at the interface of the head-neck taper junction of hip implants. The resulting metal ions and wear debris adversely affect the local tissues. The force applied by surgeons to assemble the junction has proven to...
