Design of a fretting fatigue test rig with compliant springs [PDF]

, 2013
Fretting is a small amplitude oscillatory movement which occurs between contacting bodies who are subjected to cyclic loading or vibrations. In the contact area arise stresses -normal and tangential- causing stress concentrations and surface degradation.

Electrocautery Alters the Near‐Surface Microstructure, Phases, Composition, and Hardness of Ti‐6Al‐4V

Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part A, Volume 114, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Despite the high success rates of total joint arthroplasty procedures, including total knee and hip replacements, implant failures still occur. This study investigated a potential, yet underrecognized, cause of implant failure: unintentional damage from the contact of electrosurgical blades with metal implant alloys.

Evaluation of RSRM case hardware fretting concerns [PDF]

Fretting corrosion was first noted on Shuttle flight STS-26. This flight was the first usage of the Redesigned Solid Rocket Motor (RSRM). The occurrence of fretting has since been observed on both the field and factory joints of the RSRM.

In Vivo Corrosion of Acetabular Modular Tapers Reduces Local Corrosion Resistance: Near‐Field Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy as an Indicator of the Type and Severity of Corrosion in Retrieved Hip Implants

Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part B: Applied Biomaterials, Volume 114, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Retrieved hip implant components experience a range of corrosion types and severity, often on small surface areas of the taper region. Tribocorrosion‐related damage within modular taper regions and resulting changes of the oxide‐covered surface can alter the local impedance of the interface.
