A Study on the Friction Reduction of Seal Ring for Automatic Transmission by Applying Surface Texture

open access: yesTribology Online, 2017
Texturing on sliding surface of resin seal ring was attempted to improve lubrication in this study. Numerical analysis of hydrodynamic flow at the sliding surface was conducted by Reynolds equation using the finite differential method.

Micropatterned Surfaces with Unidirectional Wetting Properties for Liquid Transport

open access: yesSmall Structures, EarlyView.
Micropatterned surfaces that guide droplets in a single direction are gaining attention for their role in liquid transport. This review explores how surface designs enable such behavior, from gravity‐driven flow to stimulus‐responsive movement. It also discusses fabrication techniques, design challenges, and emerging strategies to advance directional ...

Metals' Adsorption Onto Environmental Microplastics at Shoreline Sediments

open access: yesX-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study assessed trace element concentrations and microplastic (MP) contamination in three sandy beaches on the southern coast of Ilha Grande (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil). Environmental MPs were manually extracted from sand samples, and beaches were classified using the microplastic pollution index (MPPI).

The Influence of Non-Gaussian Roughness and Spectral Properties on Mixed Lubrication for Heavily Loaded Counterformal Contacts

open access: yesLubricants
The impact of non-Gaussian height distribution and spectral properties on the lubrication performance of counterformal (point) contacts is quantitatively studied (film parameter, Λ, and asperity load ratio, La) by developing a mixed lubrication model ...
