Clarifying cartilage mechanics during contact, separation, and migration

open access: yes, 2023
Burris, David L.The function of cartilage joint surfaces is entirely dependent on the hydration of the tissue under load. Under static applied loads cartilage continuously loses interstitial fluid, hydration and function over time.

Contact mechanics analysis of a soft robotic fingerpad

open access: yesFrontiers in Mechanical Engineering, 2022
The precision grasping capabilities of robotic hands is a key feature which is more and more required in the manipulation of objects in several unstructured fields, as for instance industrial, medical, agriculture and food industry. For this purpose, the

Handbook of Contact Mechanics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
This open access book contains a structured collection of complete solutions of all significant axially symmetric contact problems. It provides solutions for classical profiles such as the sphere, cone or flat cylindrical punch as well as a multitude of other technically relevant shapes, e.g.

Evaluation of the real contact area in three-body dry friction by micro-thermal analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Many tribological properties and wear mechanisms occurring on the micro-and nanoscale are strongly controlled by the so-called real contact area (Ar) which is a small fraction of the nominal or apparent contact area (Aa). The determination of Ar is often

Numerical simulation model of a reciprocating seal based on the mixed-lubrication theory

open access: yesThe Journal of Engineering, 2018
Based on the mixed-lubrication theory, a numerical simulation model of a reciprocating seal is established. The model includes finite element, fluid mechanics, contact mechanics and deformation mechanics analyses.

Modeling the Contact Mechanics of Hydrogels

open access: yesLubricants, 2019
A computationally lean model for the coarse-grained description of contact mechanics of hydrogels is proposed and characterized. It consists of a simple bead-spring model for the interaction within a chain, potentials describing the interaction between ...

Irreducible representation of surface distributions and Piola transformation of external loads sustainable by third gradient continua

open access: yesComptes Rendus. Mécanique, 2023
In this paper Piola transformations are found that relate the Eulerian and Lagrangian external loads which third gradient continua can sustain. As shown by Gabrio Piola and Paul Germain, the most effective postulation scheme in mechanics is based on the ...

Apparatus development for contact mechanics of energy pile-soil interface [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2020
An Energy Pile-Soil Interface Characteristic Apparatus (EPSICA) was developed to investigate the contact mechanics of the pile-soil interface. In the center of the apparatus, there is an energy pile model, around which different soil can be filled to ...
