Although the artificial parts are intended to be wear resistant‚ the daily rubbing of these surfaces against each other during normal movements creates tiny particles of debris. After many years the wear and tear may damage the surrounding bone and will require another hip joint replacement. BibliographyChiras‚ D. D. (2008). hip. Grolier

Summary The experiment solidified the hypothesis that the 6061 aluminum has no ductile-to-brittle transition do to its FCC crystal structure. The 1018 steel has a ductile-to-brittle transition temperature of -31ºC due to its BCC crystal structure. Results Table 1: Test temperatures and average fracture energies with errors for Group 4 and
