Biotribology includes tribological phenomena of natural and implant surface interactions under relative motion in the human body. Biotribology: Emerging Technologies and Applications disseminates ideas and research trends in biotribology and presents pioneering recent research advances impacting the field, focusing on the role of mathematics, chemistry, physics, materials, and mechanical engineering. Discusses tribological design, mechanisms, and characterizations of artificial joints Describes tribological characteristics, wear analysis, and tribocorrosion behaviour of metallic implants and squeeze film lubrication in synovial joints Covers state of the art and future technological developments and applications, as well as challenges and opportunities Biotribology is an important and growing field, and topics covered in the book will be of great interest to the international tribology community, appealing to readers working in the fields of materials science, biomedical engineering, biotechnology, mechanical engineering, and related areas.
