The Topology of the Leg Joints of the Beetle Pachnoda marginata (Scarabaeidae, Cetoniinae) and Its Implication for the Tribological Properties

open access: yesBiomimetics, 2018
Locomotion of walking insects is exceptionally efficient. The function of their leg joints in different movement scenarios depends on their kinematics and contacting conditions between moving parts.

Characterization of the microscopic tribological properties of sandfish (Scincus scincus) scales by atomic force microscopy

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Nanotechnology, 2018
Lizards of the genus Scincus are widely known under the common name sandfish due to their ability to swim in loose, aeolian sand. Some studies report that this fascinating property of sandfish is accompanied by unique tribological properties of their ...

Biotribology: articular cartilage friction, wear, and lubrication

open access: yes, 2008
This study developed, explored, and refined techniques for the in vitro study of cartilage-on-cartilage friction, deformation, and wear. Preliminary results of in vitro cartilage-on- cartilage experiments with emphasis on wear and biochemistry are ...

Biotribology: Studies of the Effects of Biochemical Environments on the Wear and Damage of Articular Cartilage

open access: yes, 1999
Tribology is the science of interacting surfaces in relative motion. It is specifically concerned with the friction, wear and lubrication of these surfaces.

A novel hydroxyapatite modified MXene-based hydrogel coating on Ti6Al4V alloy with improved biotribological properties and corrosion resistance

open access: yesFriction
As a commonly used bone implant, the Ti6Al4V alloy is prone to wear in the human environment because of its corrosion resistance and poor wear resistance, resulting in aseptic loosening and even implantation failure.

Lubrication and wear modelling of artificial hip joints: A review

open access: yes, 2011
Artificial hip joints, though a surgical success, are not a completely satisfactory engineering result, mainly because of their tribological performance. In fact the critical issue for implant success is the adverse tissue reactions to wear debris, which
