    Mechanical Performance of Metallic Biomaterials
    (Elsevier, 2023) Uzer-Yilmaz,B.
    Metallic biomaterials prevail over other classes of biomaterials with their synergistic combination of superior mechanical properties, corrosion and wear resistance, and long-term biocompatibility. Titanium and its alloys, stainless steels, and Co–Cr alloys have been the mostly preferred metallic biomaterials, though each exhibits significantly different mechanical performance in the body. Chemical composition, microstructure, or applied processing can significantly affect their performances. This chapter explains the phenomenon and mechanisms underlying the mechanical behavior of metallic biomaterials and induced biological responses. Methods to improve these properties are reviewed by referring to in vivo and in vitro examples. Failure of metallic implants and mechanisms leading to unsuccessful treatment are explained. Finally, future prospect of metallic biomaterials and manufacturing processes is discussed. © 2024 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
