Forcing function control of Faraday wave instabilities in viscous shallow fluids
, 2005 We investigate the relationship between the linear surface wave instabilities of a shallow viscous fluid layer and the shape of the periodic, parametric-forcing function (describing the vertical acceleration of the fluid container) that excites them.

Investigating the Effect of Water Contamination on Gearbox Lubrication based on Motor Control Data from a Sensorless Drive [PDF]
, 2014 Water is one of the most significant destructive contaminations to lubricants which in turn lead to more power consumption and early damage to rotating machines.

Resolved simulations of submarine avalanches with a simple soft-sphere / immersed boundary method [PDF]
, 2013 Physical mechanisms at the origin of the transport of solid particles in a fluid are still a matter of debate in the physics community. Yet, it is well known that these processes play a fundamental role in many natural configurations, such submarines ...

Mixed Lubrication of Coupled Journal-Thrust Bearing Systems
Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, 2002 Many mechanisms, such as computer hard drives, gear trains, and machine tool spindle systems, operate under both axial and radial loads, which should be respectively supported by a thrust and a journal bearing. By utilizing the end face of the shaft of a journal bearing as a thrust bearing, a coupled journal-thrust bearing system can be formed.

Ciliary propulsion of objects in tubes: wall drag on swimming Tetrahymena (Ciliata) in the presence of mucin and other long-chain polymers [PDF]
, 1976 The lubrication effect of three long-chain polymers - mucin, methylcellulose and Ficoll - on ciliary propulsion in tubes is measured by plotting the relative velocities of swimming cilitates as a function of the tube bore diameter.
