## Abstract Despite the widespread use of cement as a means of fixation of implants to bone, surprisingly little is known about the micromechanical behavior in terms of the local interfacial motion. In this work, we utilized digital image correlation techniques to quantify the micromechanics of the

## Abstract Loosening is recognized as one of the primary sources of total hip replacement (THR) failure. In this study the influence of the bone surface texture on loosening of the cement/bone interface was studied. Model cemented hip replacements were prepared and subjected to cyclic loads that i
## Abstract Fatigue damage from activities of daily living has been considered to be a major cause of aseptic loosening in cemented total hip arthroplasty. The cementโbone interface is one region where loosening could occur, but to date the fatigue response of the interface has not been examined. C
Biochemical features of pseudomembrane formed at the bone-cement interface of 13 failed total hip replacements were studied and histological examination of the pseudomembrane was conducted. The results of biochemical analyses revealed on average hydroxyproline, 86 pg/mg; water content, 57%; hexosami
## Abstract Impaction allografting is an attractive procedure for the treatment of failed total hip replacements. The graftโcementโhost bone interface after impaction allografting has not been characterized, although it is a potential site of subsidence for this type of revision total hip reconstru
## Abstract Aseptic loosening of cemented total hip replacements is thought to involve mechanical failure of the cementโbone interface. However, the mechanical response of the interface, particularly the postโyield, behavior, is not well understood. The purpose of this study was to determine the co
