Sections cover biomechanics and biotribology of natural and artificial joints, articular cartilage and synovial fluids, methods for improving the tribological properties of artificial joints, and the biotribology of artificial joints with artificial cartilage, regenerated cartilage, and biomimetic design solutions.
