Relativistic Dynamical Friction in the Weak Scattering Limit
A test mass, $M$, moving through an ambient medium of light particles with lower average kinetic energy than itself suffers a deceleration caused by its scattering of the light particles. The phenomenon is usually referred to as dynamical friction.

Cross-sectional river shapes: A variational discharge-resistance formulation [PDF]
Cross-sectional river shapes were obtained from a variational principle: minimizing the bed friction for a given discharge and a given maximum lateral bed slope (angle of repose).

Energy Dissipation and Trapping of Particles Moving on a Rough Surface
We report an experimental, numerical and theoretical study of the motion of a ball on a rough inclined surface. The control parameters are $D$, the diameter of the ball, $\theta$, the inclination angle of the rough surface and $E_{ki}$, the initial ...

Machining performance of vegetable oil with phosphonium- and ammonium-based ionic liquids via MQL technique [PDF]
Thermo-mechanical loads are the main factor that influences the tool wear and product surfaces during machining processes. Lubrication in metal cutting is an effective medium to reduce frictional forces and wear on the tool-workpiece interfaces.

Multifluid Eulerian modeling of dense gas–solids fluidized bed hydrodynamics: Influence of the dissipation parameters [PDF]
Computational fluid dynamic (CFD) models must be thoroughly validated before they can be used with confidence for designing fluidized bed reactors.

Interparticle friction leads to non-monotonic flow curves and hysteresis in viscous suspensions [PDF]
Hysteresis is a major feature of the solid-liquid transition in granular materials. This property, by allowing metastable states, can potentially yield catastrophic phenomena such as earthquakes or aerial landslides.

Angle of Repose and Angle of Marginal Stability: Molecular Dyanmics of Granular Particles
We present an implementation of realistic static friction in molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of granular particles. In our model, to break contacts between two particles, one has to apply a finite amount of force, determined by the Coulomb criterion.

Unwinding relaxation dynamics of polymers [PDF]
The relaxation dynamics of a polymer wound around a fixed obstacle constitutes a fundamental instance of polymer with twist and torque and it is of relevance also for DNA denaturation dynamics.
