Finite Element Simulation of Dry Wear of Prosthesis Made of UHMWPE and 316LVM Stainless Steel

The study of wear is currently one of the most important aspects of applied mechanics. The damage caused by this phenomenon involves the total replacement of parts in devices ranging from industrial machinery to biomedical implants. The focus of these work is aimed at the analysis and prediction of mechanical wear in prostheses manufactured using UHMWPE materials and 316 LVM stainless steel by means of the finite element method using Abaqus ® software V. 2020. The wear mechanism between the surfaces of the UHMWPE material specimen and a 316 LVM stainless steel specimen was modeled using Archard’s wear theory to determine the parameters of damage, plastic deformation, and fatigue. The attrition process was discretized into several steps, including developing a program in Fortran code, and integrating a pre-established subroutine known as UMESHMOTION, followed by a Mesh update whenever contact nodes were deformed. For the simulation process, the variables of the thermal properties of conductivity, specific heat, and the parameters of the Johnson-Cook plastic model were taken into account. The simulation results were validated by laboratory tests.
