Originální abstrakt

The presented study dealt with the experimental analysis of friction and lubrication mechanism observed with fluorescent microscopy in total knee replacement represented by CoCrMo wheel and PMMA plate. Model synovial fluid with marked constituents was used as test lubricant. The experiments investigated three main parameters. Slide-roll-ratio (SRR) showed the greatest influence on lubrication film formation. Friction coefficient was mostly influenced by axial load; its increase led to a decrease in friction. Relative speed was manifested for SRR 1.25 and higher where its increase caused a decrease in friction. The complex experiment showed a development of friction coefficient and lubrication film along the whole gait cycle. The results of this experiment correspond with the initial results concerning the influences of parameters.
