A series of fretting fatigue experiments are described in which the fatigue life is found to vary with contact size. There exists a critical contact size, where fatigue lives are longer than 10 7 cycles. Short crack methodologies based on the Kitagawa-Takahashi diagram are developed and used to pred

Under the conditions of constant nominal applied stress. increasing notch root radius causes an increase in the number of cycles to initiate a fatigue crack at a notch root. An explanation of the effect is given in terms of the effective stress concentration factor of the notch. Data are presented w
## Abstract Crosslinked ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) has been recently approved by the Food and Drug Administration for use in orthopedic implants. The majority of commercially available UHMWPE orthopedic components are crosslinked using eβbeam or gamma radiation. The level of c
