The scale of influence of the single crystal sapphire crystallographic plane orientation and grinding conditions on the material removal rate, surface finish and the state of sub-surface layer have been studied under Low-Temperature Precision Grinding (LPG). The schemes of forming partial spherical heads for human hip joints endoprostheses are considered and elaborated. The possible versions of forming the spherical heads of endoprosthesis based on the novelties in kinematics and the mode of material removal are discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
