Friction Coefficient for Center Pivot Systems
An important objective of any center pivot irrigation system is to achieve a uniform distribution of water delivered through the sprinklers. In this study friction coefficients are developed for designing center pivot irrigation systems using two of the ...

Investigation and modelling of rubber friction [PDF]
PhDThe friction between a rubber surface in contact with a rigid surface is still not fully understood. Unlike other materials, friction behaviour in rubber is significantly dependent upon a variety of parameters due to its viscoelastic nature. The aim
