Simulation and Evaluation of the UHMWPE Surface Wear
 Franta, L. ; Jeníková, Z. ; Sieber, D. ; Synková, Hana ; Pražák, Josef ; Suchánek, J.
The goal of this research project is to increase the lifetime of total knee joint replacement. Therefore the “In vitro“ simulation of realistic physiological conditions is important. For the knee joint replacement experiments, a KKK ELO 98001 simulator is used. The simulator enables the combination of rolling and sliding motion of replacement components with sinusoidal loading. During the experiment, a considerable amount of wear particles of the UHMWPE component is produced and the friction surfaces are irreversibly changed. Initially, the irregularities of tibia component are smoothed. Consequently, large amounts of UHMWPE wear are released. The surface changes of specimens were evaluated.

Simulace a vyhodnocování otěrových procesů pro UHMPE elementů náhrady kolenního kloubu

The demands on artificial knee joint replacement are steadily increasing. Major motivation of this research project, is to increase the lifetime of present prosthesis designs .The main problem of the commonly used UHMWPE / Steel–Implants is the appearance of polyethylene wear which leads to aseptic loosening and therefore to long-term prosthesis failing. In vitro simulations can be an important instrument to predict the wear behavior of new prosthesis designs and materials. ISO 14243 has been developed to obtain comparable results testing on different in vitro simulators. The aim of this study is to verify, how the simplifications made by the in-vitro simulations influence the simulation results and how today’s prosthesis testing can be made more realistic.
