dc.description.abstractTotal hip replacement (THR), regarded as the orthopaedic operation of the 20th century, uses ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) as the acetabular liner since 1960s. However, the life of a metal-on-plastic THR is often limited to 15-20 years, primarily due to excessive wear debris generation during its operation, leading to osteolysis and aseptic loosening of the prosthetic joint leaving behind a painful revision surgery. Presently worldwide research is dedicated in improving the life of a metal-on-plastic THR by the improvement of tribological characteristics of an UHMWPE acetabular liner.
