Preparation of Superhydrophobic and Super-Oleophilicity 304 Stainless Steel Mesh and Its Performance of Oil-Water Separation [PDF]
At present, the oil-water separation materials with high cost and complex preparation process perform poor effect. In order to solve this problem, the 304 stainless steel strainers as substrates were treated by FeCl3 solution etching method to ...

Cats and owners interact more with each other after a longer duration of separation. [PDF]
Little is known about the cat's (Felis silvestris catus) need for human contact, although it is generally believed that cats are more independent pets than e.g. dogs.

The Separate Neural Control of Hand Movements and Contact Forces [PDF]
To manipulate an object, we must simultaneously control the contact forces exerted on the object and the movements of our hand. Two alternative views for manipulation have been proposed: one in which motions and contact forces are represented and controlled by separate neural processes, and one in which motions and forces are controlled jointly, by a ...

Molecular Dynamics Study of Contact Mechanics: Contact Area and Interfacial Separation from Small to Full Contact [PDF]
We report a molecular dynamics study of the contact between a rigid solid with a randomly rough surface and an elastic block with a flat surface. We study the contact area and the interfacial separation from small contact (low load) to full contact (high load). For small load the contact area varies linearly with the load and the interfacial separation

Connection of surface roughness to hysteresis loss in spine implants
To investigate roughness effect in spine implant, a contact model is offered in this paper. The contact surfaces are modeled macroscopically as semi-spherical containing micro-scale roughness.
