Description

Medical tribology can be defined as the science of tribological phenomena in the human body, both those that naturally occur in the tissues or organs and those that arise after implantation of an artificial device, while biomaterials are inert substances designed to be incorporated into living systems. Biomaterials and medical tribology brings together a collection of high quality articles and case studies focussing on new research and developments in these two important fields. The book provides details of the different types of biomaterial available, including metals, polymers and composites, while chapters in the latter half offer an analysis of friction, wear, lubrication and other related issues in specific applications. Key Features: written by highly knowledgeable and well-respected experts in the field; diversity of subjects from international experts; the scientific material surrounding this subject is of importance to research centres and universities worldwide. Contents: Nanoparticles for biomedical applications: Current status, trends and future challenges; Synergism effects during friction and fretting corrosion experiments focusing on biomaterials used as orthopedic implants; Application of biomedical-grade titanium alloys in trabecular bone and artificial joints; Fatigue strengthening of an orthopedic Ti6Al4V alloy: What is the potential of a final shot peening process? Wear determination on retrieved metal-on-metal hip arthroplasty: An example of extreme wear; Natural articular joints: Model of lamellar-rollerbearing lubrication and the nature of the cartilage surface; Importance of bearing porosity in engineering and natural lubrication; Tribological characterization of human tooth enamel; Liposome-based carrier systems and devices used for pulmonary drug delivery.
