Mechanical behaviour of fluid-lubricated faults [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
AbstractFluids are pervasive in fault zones cutting the Earth's crust; however, the effect of fluid viscosity on fault mechanics is mainly conjectured by theoretical models. We present friction experiments performed on both dry and fluid-permeated silicate and carbonate bearing-rocks, at normal effective stresses up to 20 MPa, with a slip-rate ranging ...

The Application of Nano-MoS2 Quantum Dots as Liquid Lubricant Additive for Tribological Behavior Improvement

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2020
Molybdenum disulfide quantum dots (MoS2 QDs) are a promising lubricant additive for enhanced engine efficiency. In this study, MoS2 QDs were used as lubricating oil additives for ball-on-disc contact and had adequate dispersity in paroline oil, due to ...

Synergistic Lubrication Mechanism of Nano-Fluid and Grinding Wheel Prepared by CNTs@T304 Nano-Capsules

open access: yesLubricants, 2023
Grinding fluid often struggles to enter the grinding area and overcoming this challenge has been a major focus of research in recent years. Therefore, CNTs@T304 nano-capsules are prepared by filling the cavities of CNTs with a lubricant of T304.

Frictional lubricity enhanced by quantum mechanics [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2018
Significance Sliding friction, a corner of physics still under debate after centuries, is currently studied in nanosystems such as optical lattice emulators, where parameters are easy to control but where applicability of classical mechanics is no longer guaranteed.

Lubrication Mechanisms Between Parallel Rough Surfaces [PDF]

open access: yesTribology Letters, 2019
This paper presents a numerical analysis of the hydrodynamic pressure build-up between parallel surfaces. According to the Reynolds theory, it is not possible to generate a pressure between flat parallel sliding surfaces. However, experimental results demonstrate that mechanical seal surfaces can be separated by a full fluid film if the sliding speed ...

Gas-Phase Lubrication of ta-C by Glycerol and Hydrogen Peroxide. Experimental and Computer Modeling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Tetrahedrally coordinated hydrogen-free amorphous diamond-like carbon coating (denoted as ta-C) presents ultralow friction under boundary lubrication conditions at 80 °C in presence of OH-containing molecules.
