Biomaterials: Joints and problems of contact interfaces
Year: 2006
Type: article
Abstract: Intensive development of modern materials enables their increasing application in biomedical engineering. To make the material under consideration applicable, it should be made biocompatible with organic material. One of the problems encountered in design of the implant joints in a human body is the problem of the interfaces in contact, caused by significant difference in mechanical properties of the materials applied. Good understanding of these problems is of immense significance in prevention of premature failures of the structures in biomedical engineering.
