Fatigue fracture of artificial implants in the human body, caused by the repeated application of stress, is well documented. It is known that the fatigue strength of implant materials decreases when they are exposed under in vivo corrosion conditions. There are, however, no investigations concerning
## Abstract The objective of this study was to produce corrosion behavior data for each of the commonly used metallic alloys in surgical implants. In addition, by applying the known electrochemical corrosion theory, the study aims to predict the behavior of galvanic couples made of any two of the m
