Long-term contact-coupled wear prediction for metal-on-metal total hip joint replacement

The major long-term failure identified for metal-on-UHMWPE is aseptic loosening due to wear generation. Metal-on-metal hip joint replacement has been found to have minimal wear compared to metal-on-UHMWPE. The objective of this study was to apply the computational simulation in predicting wear of me...
