## Abstract Nitrogen‐ion‐implanted Ti‐6Al‐4V against UHMW polythylene was tested on a joint simulator to evaluate the wear behavior under different conditions. It was concluded that the polymer wear rate was not affected by ion implantation. The metallic wear, on the other hand, was substantially r
Earlier studies of the effect of ion implantation on wear of Ti-6Al-4V have now been extended to an examination of the effect of ion implantation on fatigue, fretting and fretting-corrosion of this alloy. Using smooth rotating-bending fatigue specimens tested in air at a frequency of 47Hz it has bee
