ASTM F 2028 (F-2028) determines how much a prosthetic glenoid component rocks or pivots following cyclic displacement of the humeral head to opposing glenoid rims (for example, superior-inferior or anterior-posterior). The method assumes that loosening occurs because of edge loading, often called the rocking-horse phenomenon. Performance is judged by the tensile displacement opposite each loaded rim after dynamic rocking.
