How to Make the Skin Contact Area Controllable by Optical Calibration in Wearable Tactile Displays of Softness [PDF]
SensorsVirtual reality systems may benefit from wearable (fingertip-mounted) haptic displays capable of rendering the softness of virtual objects. According to neurophysiological evidence, the easiest reliable way to render a virtual softness is to generate ...

Effect on oxides on surface topography and thermal contact resistance [PDF]
, 1979 The effect of oxides on the topographies of various random engineering surfaces and steady-state thermal contact resistances between oxidefree and oxidized metallic surfaces in contact in high vacua have been investigated. The results of many previous

Adhesion Between Rigid Indenter and Soft Rubber Layer: Influence of Roughness
Frontiers in Mechanical Engineering, 2020 We report a series of experiments on the indentation of steel indenters into a soft layer of transparent rubber with relatively high adhesion. The roughness properties of the steel indenters are varied by undergoing preparation using sandpaper with ...

Mechanics Analysis of Rough Surface Based on Shoulder-Shoulder Contact
Applied Sciences, 2021 Proper methods and models for mechanical analysis of rough surface can improve the theory of surface contact. When the topography parameters of two rough surfaces are similar, the contact should be considered shoulder-shoulder rather than top-top.

Surface Hierarchy: Macroscopic and Microscopic Design Elements for Improved Sliding on Ice
Lubricants, 2021 Frictional interaction with a surface will depend on the features and topography within the contact zone. Describing this interaction is particularly complex when considering ice friction, which needs to look at both the macroscopic and microscopic ...
