Tribology of particle suspensions in rolling-sliding soft contacts [PDF]
We investigate the lubrication of microsphere suspensions between compliant substrates, and probe the influence of matrix viscosity, particle phase volume, surface roughness and wetting, and slide-to-roll ratio (SRR).

Surface Characterization of Stainless Steel 316L Coated with Various Nanoparticle Types
Background. Material tribology has widely expanded in scope and depth and is extended from the mechanical field to the biomedical field. The present study aimed to characterize the nanocoating of highly pure (99.9%) niobium (Nb), tantalum (Ta), and vanadium (V) deposited on 316L stainless steel (SS) substrates which considered the most widely used ...
