| Abstract | A novel material combination of a large diameter Biolox$^{®}$ Delta zirconia-toughened-alumina (ZTA) head and a pitch-based carbon fibre reinforced poly ether–ether-ketone (CFR-PEEK) MOTIS$^{®}$ cup has been studied. The acetabular cups were inclined at three angles and tested using Durham Hip Simulators. The different inclination angles used did not have a significant effect on the wear rates (ANOVA, p = 0.646). Averaged over all cups, the wear rates were calculated to be 0.551 ± 0.115 mm$^{3}$/10$^{6}$ cycles and 0.493 ± 0.107 mm$^{3}$/10$^{6}$ cycles taking into account two types of soak controls; loaded at room temperature and unloaded at 37 °C respectively. Averaged across all femoral heads, the wear rate was 0.243 ± 0.031 mm$^{3}$/10$^{6}$ cycles. The temperature change of the lubricant caused by the frictional heat was measured in situ. Friction factors measured using the Durham Friction Simulator were lower for the worn CFR-PEEK cups compared with unworn. This correlated with the decreased surface roughness. Even though relatively high friction was observed in these hemispherical hard-on-soft bearings, the wear rate is encouragingly low. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
