Modern hip joint replacements are designed to minimise wear problems. The most popular metal-on-polyethylene components are being updated by harder metal and ceramic combinations. However, this has also been shown to influence the friction moments, which could overload the interface between the impl
## Abstract This article aims to clarify the influence of designβ and manufacturingβrelated parameters on wear of metalβonβmetal (MoM) joint bearings. A database search for publications on wear simulator studies of MoM bearings was performed. The results of published studies were normalized; groups
