Cartilage and Joint Surface Injuries

The Tribology of Articular Cartilage Against Artificial Joint Surfaces. The goal is to determine which artificial joint surfaces—commercially-available and novel—create the best surface interaction with cartilage. Also investigating, the tribological behavior of native cartilage against different artificial surface materials. Co-investigator in collaboration with Argonne National Laboratory.
