Predicting the steady state thickness of passive films in order to prevent degradations of implant

Jean Geringer, Mathew L. Taylor, Digby D. Macdonald

Some implants have approximately a lifetime of 15 years. The femoral stem, for example, should be made of 316L/316LN stainless steel. Fretting corrosion, friction under small displ…

Degradation of alumina and zirconia toughened alumina (ZTA) hip prostheses tested under microseparation conditions in a shock device

Juliana Uribe, Jean Geringer, Laurent Gremillard +1

This paper considers the degradation of alumina and zirconia toughened alumina vs. alumina for hip implants. The materials are as assumed to be load bearing surfaces subjected to s…

Shock machine for the mechanical behaviour of hip prostheses: a description of performance capabilities

Juliana Uribe, Jean Géringer, Bernard Forest

The aim of this study was to describe the behaviour of a shock machine designed for testing hip prostheses. A microseparation between head and cup occurs inducing a shock of severa…

Finite element modelling of shock-induced damages on ceramic hip prostheses

Juliana Uribe, Jérôme Hausselle, Jean Geringer

The aim of this work was to simulate the behaviour of hip prostheses under mechanical shocks. When hip joint is replaced by prosthesis, during the swing phase of the leg, a microse…
