Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Investigation of the effects of electrochemical reactions on complex metal tribocorrosion within the human body

open access: yesHeliyon, 2021
Although total hip arthroplasty (THA) is considered to be the most successful orthopedic operation in restoring mobility and relieving pain, common Metal-on-Metal (MoM) implants developed in the past decade suffer from severe inflammatory reactions of ...

THE CRITERIA OF EXTENDED TENSION IN THE FRETTING PHENOMENON [PDF]

open access: yesAnalele Universităţii "Constantin Brâncuşi" din Târgu Jiu: Seria Inginerie, 2019
Fretting is now fully identified as a small amplitude oscillatory motion which induces a harmonic tangential force between two surfaces in contact. It is related to three main loadings, i.e. fretting-wear, frettingfatigue and fretting corrosion.

Modelling of Lubricated Electrical Contacts

open access: yesLubricants, 2022
Electrical contacts, although critically important for a wide range of applications, are susceptible to degradation due to fretting corrosion, especially when sliding and vibrations occur.

Metallosis and Corrosion Associated With Revision Total Knee Arthroplasties With Metaphyseal Sleeves

open access: yesArthroplasty Today, 2023
Metallosis and corrosion have been associated with metal-on-metal and modular total hip arthroplasty but are rarely described in the setting of primary or revision total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

Engineered Metal–Organic Frameworks‐Based Materials for Environmental Detection

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, Volume 9, Issue 4, July 2026.
Engineered metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) regulated by various material modification strategies are discussed for environmental contaminant detection under different sensing mechanisms, providing future improvements of MOFs in environmental detection. Sensitive and selective detection of contaminants is crucial for environmental protection.

Femoral stem wear in cemented total hip replacement

open access: yes, 2008
The great success of cemented total hip replacement to treat patients with end-stage osteoarthritis and osteonecrosis has been well documented. However, its long-term survivorship has been compromised by progressive development of aseptic loosening, and ...
