Effect of adhesion on material removal during adhesive wear

Physical Review Materials, 2019
It has been empirically understood that one can diminish wear by reducing adhesion between sliding surfaces. A clear contribution of interfacial adhesion into the process of surface material removal, however, remains elusive as most wear observations are obtained from post-factum analyses of worn surfaces. Investigating the complete life of an adhesive

Topology and Material Optimization in Ultra‐Soft Magneto‐Active Structures: Making Advantage of Residual Anisotropies

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Residual magnetization induces pronounced mechanical anisotropy in ultra‐soft magnetorheological elastomers, shaping deformation and actuation even without external magnetic fields. This study introduces a computational‐experimental framework integrating magneto‐mechanical coupling into topology optimization for designing soft magnetic actuators with ...
