Abstract: A general steady-state elastohydrodynamic lubrication model was developed for artificial hip joints, with particular reference to the effect of the anatomical position of the cup and the ...

Abstract: A quasi-global interpolation method that fits a quintic spline curve to a set of designated data points is described in this paper. The resultant curve has several important features. First, ...

Abstract: A general elastohydrodynamic lubrication model was developed to consider the nonsphericity of the bearing geometry in hip joint implants, both under the steady and transient conditions. The ...
