Brown; Sridhar Condoor A need exists to develop realistic surfaces, with differing degrees of surface roughness, to standardize methods for sampling and cleaning of environmental contaminants. This study reports on development...

... tested under unidirectional motion were severely damaged by abrasive wear resulting in a significant increase in roughness. The implant tested under combined motions exhibited a multi-directional wear scar with limited surface damage. Although only a single retrieved implant was characterized...

... surface profile, roughness, premature transverse cracking, and construction condition, and (5) establish a standard procedure to analyze the condition of joints, including rotation and faulting, and determine the relationship between joint condition, and roughness. The paper discusses data mining...
