Shock machine for the mechanical behaviour of hip prostheses: a description of performance capabilities [PDF]

Lubrication Science 24, 2 (2012) 45-60, 2012
The aim of this study was to describe the behaviour of a shock machine designed for testing hip prostheses. A microseparation between head and cup occurs inducing a shock of several times the body weight, leading to fracture of ceramic femoral components.
