Development of a novel method to characterize mean surface peak curvature as a signature of tribological performance of dental implant surfaces

Zabala, Alaitz; Aginagalde, Andrea; Llavori, Inigo; Tato, Wilson (IOP Publishing, 2020)

The integrity of dental implant surfaces might be compromised during surgical insertion. Wear and topographical modifications can occur during implant insertion, which can potentially have clinical implications. Accordingly, ...
Surface integrity of additive manufacturing parts: a comparison between optical topography measuring techniques

Tato, Wilson; Llavori, Inigo; Aginagalde, Andrea; Zabala, Alaitz (Elsevier B.V., 2020)

Additive Manufacturing (AM) presents significant industry-specific advantages allowing the creation of complex geometries and internal features that cannot be produced using conventional manufacturing processes. However, ...
The use of areal surface topography characterisation in relation to fatigue performance

Zabala, Alaitz; Llavori, Inigo; Tato, Wilson; Aginagalde, Andrea; Gómez Rodríguez, Xabier (EDP Sciences, 2018)

Although the effect of surface topography on fatigue life is widely accepted, the underlying role of surface roughness from first principles is still poorly understood. Currently approaches which consider the ...
