Motor Output Variability Impairs Driving Ability in Older Adults [PDF]
, 2016 Background: The functional declines with aging relate to deficits in motor control and strength. In this study, we determine whether older adults exhibit impaired driving as a consequence of declines in motor control or strength. Methods: Young and older

Modeling the Friction Boundary Layer of an Entire Brake Pad with an Abstract Cellular Automaton
Lubricants, 2018 The principle energy exchange of a brake system occurs in the tribological boundary layer between the pad and the disc. The associated phenomena are primarily responsible for the dynamics of brake systems.

The Toeplitz algebra has nuclear dimension one
, 2018 We prove the title by constructing 2-colourable completely positive approximations for the Toeplitz algebra. Besides results about nuclear dimension and completely positive contractive order zero maps, our argument involves projectivity of the cone over ...

Do supernovae favor tachyonic Big Brake instead de Sitter? [PDF]
, 2009 We investigate whether a tachyonic scalar field, encompassing both dark energy and dark matter-like features will drive our universe towards a Big Brake singularity or a de Sitter expansion.

Can Ti‐Based MXenes Serve as Solid Lubricants for Brake Applications? A Tribological Study
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This study explores the first implementation of Ti‐based MXenes materials in brake pad friction composite material. The resulting composite material exhibits a 48% reduction in the wear rate; alongside significant improvements are observed for thermal and mechanical properties.
