The friction stress at the mating interface is in scarcity of lubricin, imperfection of natural lubrication over joint articulation due to biomechanical degradation, and residual biomedical indicators. The healthy articulating joints provide an ultra-low friction coefficient that is relatively lesser than bionic interfaces and interphases. Keyphrases: Heterogeneity, Synovial biomolecules, Viscoelasticity, energy balance
