approximately linear (convergence tests suggest a maximum step size of
500 000 cycles to 1 000 000 cycles (1 Mcycle) (Maxian et al ., 1996b; Knight
et al ., 2007), corresponding to a few months of in vivo use). An entire long-
term simulation of several million cycles may then be completed in just
a handful of iterations. Generally, a sensitivity test will be used, testing
decreasing step sizes to verify that the overall wear rate converges towards
the rate observed under ‘continuous’ conditions. The  ow diagram for this
algorithm is illustrated in Fig. 3.13.
