Anti-loosening performance of coatings on fasteners subjected to dynamic shear load
Friction, 2017 This paper investigates the self-loosening of threaded fasteners subjected to dynamic shear load. Three kinds of typical coatings, PTFE, MoS2, and TiN applied to bolts and nuts, are tested in this investigation.

Hip Labral Reconstruction With a Synthetic Graft: Development and Preclinical Validation
Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.Femoroacetabular impingement plays a prominent role in osteoarthritis pathogenesis. Treating FAI is fundamental, and labral reconstruction is considered the treatment of choice. A synthetic graft ready to be used in the surgical room for labral reconstruction, to best restore hip function, might be the solution.

Friction in metal-on-metal total disc arthroplasty: effect of ball radius [PDF]
, 2012 Total Disc Arthroplasty (TDA) can be used to replace a degenerated intervertebral disc in the spine. There are different designs of prosthetic discs, but one of the most common is a ball-and-socket combination.

Finite Element Modeling of a Thermoplastic Polyurethane Ball for Rolling Seismic Isolation
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 4, Page 926-946, 10 April 2026.ABSTRACT The Elastomeric‐Ball Pendulum (EBP) system, which consists of an elastomeric ball rolling on a spherical concrete surface, has been proposed as an isolation system for lightweight structures. Experimental tests have shown that the mechanics of such a rolling ball are remarkably complicated because the vertical load changes the shape of the ...

Tribo-corrosion properties of cobalt-based medical implant alloys in simulated biological environments [PDF]
, 2007 Tribological problems and corrosion degradation have been recognized as essential risks for total joint replacements, especially for all-metal arthroplasty. Few studies have focused on the interactions between tribology and corrosion (tribocorrosion) for

Ultra‐High Friction and Adhesion in Hydrogel Layer Driven by Wet‐to‐Dry Transition Dynamics
Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 15, 13 March 2026.This work reveals a critical wet‐to‐dry transition in polyacrylamide hydrogel layers that induces volumetric shrinkage, resulting in enhanced interfacial contact and dramatically increased friction and adhesion. Leveraging this transition enables strong, reversible gripping on diverse surfaces, offering new insights for hydrogel‐based gripping ...
