Active control of finger sliding friction with different surface roughness in SDS solutions for underwater surface haptics

open access: yesFriction
Underwater surface haptics based on friction modulation provide new concepts for immersive extended reality haptic technology. A previous study proposed a modulation method by using a voltage-controlled technique in saline solutions, demonstrating that ...

Effect of Protein (Bovine Serum Albumin) Content on the Frictional Behaviour of Soft Contact Lenses Using a Dynamic Oscillating Tribometer

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Proteins can adsorb on the surface of materials, such as soft contact lenses (SCLs), and can affect the hydrophobicity, roughness, and surface properties of the contact lenses (CLs), which, in turn, can influence the friction between the lenses and the ...

Characterization of the microscopic tribological properties of sandfish (Scincus scincus) scales by atomic force microscopy

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Nanotechnology, 2018
Lizards of the genus Scincus are widely known under the common name sandfish due to their ability to swim in loose, aeolian sand. Some studies report that this fascinating property of sandfish is accompanied by unique tribological properties of their ...

A novel hydroxyapatite modified MXene-based hydrogel coating on Ti6Al4V alloy with improved biotribological properties and corrosion resistance

open access: yesFriction
As a commonly used bone implant, the Ti6Al4V alloy is prone to wear in the human environment because of its corrosion resistance and poor wear resistance, resulting in aseptic loosening and even implantation failure.
