Fixation of Synovial Joints
The subject is truly vast, far greater than will be encompassed in this paper which can be best deal with various examples. It should be realised that virtually any fairly solid substance may be called upon as a bearing material. It is easy to quote common examples which use rubies, wood, rubber, leather etc. as bearing materials and this diversity is only a microcosmic part of the range availa...
متن کاملSynovial Joints and Lubrication mechanisms
Synovial joints form the most important feature of the human body as they represent the centers of the most essential and basic activity in the human beings, which is motion. A synovial joint can be described as a load carrying system consisting of two mating bones with tangential and /or normal motions. The bone ends, which are usually spherical in appearance, are covered with a soft sponge li...
متن کاملTribology of Prosthetic Joints – Validation of Wear Simulation Methods
In hip and knee arthroplasty, loosening of prosthetic components is the principal reason for expensive and complicated reoperations. Loosening is believed to be caused mainly by tissue reactions to wear particles removed from ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene bearing surfaces. The tissue reactions, leading to bone loss, depend on the size and amount of the particles. Wear simulators are i...
متن کاملEffect of carbon ion implantation on the tribology of metal-on-metal bearings for artificial joints
Metal-on-metal (MoM) bearings have become popular due to a major advantage over metal-on-polymer bearings for total hip arthroplasty in that the larger femoral head and hydrodynamic lubrication of the former reduce the rate of wear. However, concerns remain regarding adverse reactions to metal debris including metallosis caused by metal wear generated at the taper-head interface and another mod...
متن کاملFormation of synovial joints and articular cartilage.
Chondrocytes differentiate from mesenchymal progenitors and produce templates(anlagen) for the developing bones. Chondrocyte differentiation is controlled by Sox transcription factors. Templates for the neighbour bones are subsequently separated by conversion of differentiated chondrocytes into non-chondrogenic cells and emergence of interzone in which joints cavitation occurs. A central role i...
