The micromechanisms of fatigue fracture in bone cements were explored and characterized in this investigation. Fatigue crack initiation sites were identified and the microscopic features responsible for crack initiation are illustrated. Differences in the fracture morphology of PMMA beads, in early
## Abstract The beneficial effect of porosity reduction on the fatigue life of bone cement has been demonstrated in numerous experimental studies. Clinically, however, it seems that the beneficial effect of porosity reduction of cement around total hip replacement components can only be found in la
Abrtrrt-Aspects of the tccbnical meaning of fatigue considerations in practice are indicated. The fatigue life is subdivided into a crack nucleations period aod a crack propagation period. The siguiticat~ce of recog&iag these periods for practical problems is illustmtcd by several ~xamptes. The simi
