Friction Modification by Shifting of Phonon Energy Dissipation in Solid Atoms

open access: yesTribology Online, 2015
Numerous researchers have focused on the relation between kinetic friction and the surface properties of materials, such as their surface roughness and chemical state, because kinetic friction is the loss of kinetic energy at a sliding interface ...

Study of kinetic performance effect on wheel and rail wear using computer simulation

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Research, 2016
The study object is a “wheel - rail” system. The subject is the computer simulation of the system elements wear. The work objective is to investigate the wheel and rail wear dependence on the kinetic performance parameters.

Static and Kinetic Friction From Nanoscale Slip—A Multiscale Approach Using a 2D Binary Hierarchy of Nodes

open access: yesFrontiers in Materials, 2022
A local, elastic deformation model is combined with a dynamic simulation to investigate nanoscale slip between a rigid, curved pin and an elastic slab, and its influence on static and kinetic friction.

Large-eddy simulation of a hypersonic turbulent boundary layer over a compression corner

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2023
In this paper, large-eddy simulation of the interaction between a shock wave and the hypersonic turbulent boundary layer in a compression corner with a fixed 34° deflection angle at Ma = 6 for different Reynolds number cases is conducted.

Anisotropic Wettability of Bioinspired Surface Characterized by Friction Force

open access: yesBiomimetics, 2022
Bioinspired surfaces with special wettabilities attract increasing attention due to their extensive applications in many fields. However, the characterizations of surface wettability by contact angle (CA) and sliding angle (SA) have clear drawbacks. Here,

Kinetic Friction of Boardercross-snowboards

open access: yesProcedia Engineering, 2014
Abstract The purpose of this study was to analyze the kinetic friction of different combinations of snowboard base structures and waxes. On a linear tribometer in a cold lab 3 snowboards with 3 different base structures were first waxed with a training wax. Then the friction coefficient was assessed at 2 m/s, 5 m/s and 8 m/s.

Structural lubricity of physisorbed gold clusters on graphite and its breakdown: Role of boundary conditions and contact lines

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2022
The sliding motion of gold slabs adsorbed on a graphite substrate is simulated using molecular dynamics. The central quantity of interest is the mean lateral force, that is, the kinetic friction rather than the maximum lateral forces, which correlates ...

Selection of Polymer Materials for Micro Slide Bearings With Respect to Minimization of Resistance to Motion

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
Values of static and kinetic friction coefficient in micro slide bearings, consisting of journals and bushings (with the diameter of 3.5 mm) made of pairs of 5 polymer materials (16 chosen combinations of PA11, ABS, PC, PS and PETP), were determined.
