Abstract
This paper presents recent progress in the knowledge concerning the stochastic theory of bio- hydrodynamic lubrication with a phospholipids bilayer. On the basis of experimental measurements and analytical solutions, the research concerns the determination of the random expectancy values of load carrying capacity, the friction coefficient, and synovial fluid dynamic variations. After numerous measurements, it directly follows that the random density function of the gap height in the human joint usually indicates a disorderly increases and decreases in the height. Such irregular gap height variations have an important influence on the random synovial bio-fluid dynamic viscosity. This finally leads to the friction coefficient and cartilage wear changes of cooperating bio- surfaces. The main topic of this paper relates to the expectancy values of the tribology parameters localized inside the variable stochastic standard deviation intervals of the human joint gap height. The results obtained finally indicate the influence of the random roughness and growth of living biological cartilage surfaces on the expectancy values of the synovial fluid dynamic viscosity, load carrying capacity and friction forces in human hip joints.
