This study proposes two methods for exploring the wear volume of a worn liner. The first method is a numerical method, in
which SolidWorks® software is used to create models of the worn out regions of liners at various wear directions and depths. The second method
is an experimental one, in which a machining center is used to mill polyoxymethylene to manufacture worn and unworn liner
models, then the volumes of the models are measured. The results show that the SolidWorks® software is a good tool for presenting the wear pattern and volume of a worn liner. The formula provided by Ilchmann is the
most suitable for computing liner volume loss, but is not accurate enough. This study suggests that a more accurate wear formula
is required. This is crucial for accurate evaluation of the performance of hip components implanted in patients, as well as
for designing new hip components. |
