Fabrication and Hypersonic Wind Tunnel Validation of a MEMS Skin Friction Sensor Based on Visual Alignment Technology [PDF]

open access: yesSensors, 2019
MEMS-based skin friction sensors are used to measure and validate skin friction and its distribution, and their advantages of small volume, high reliability, and low cost make them very important for vehicle design.

Low friction layer in sanitary products for reduced skin irritation [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Sanitary napkins are essential during menstruation, but they can sometimes cause skin irritation due to friction. In this study, we propose a novel design: introducing a low-friction layer within the bulk of a sanitary napkin.

Reconstruction of skin friction topology in complex separated flows

open access: yesAdvances in Aerodynamics, 2023
This paper describes a theoretical method for reconstruction of the skin friction topology in complex separated flows, which is developed based on the exact relation between skin friction and surface pressure through the boundary enstrophy flux (BEF ...

DEVICE FOR DETERMINING THE COEFFICIENT OF SKIN FRICTION [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings on Engineering Sciences, 2019
Skin tribology is very important scientific area because of its presence in everyday life in form of friction in contact of skin surface and various materials. The most often it appears between palm skin and fingers and object which are in someone hands (

Determination of Skin Friction Factor in Gravel Bed Rivers: Considering the Effect of Large-Scale Topographic Forms in Non-Uniform Flows

open access: yesHydrology, 2022
Determination of skin friction factor has been a controversial topic, particularly in gravel-bed rivers where total flow resistance is influenced by the existence of small-scale skin roughness and large-scale topographic forms.

Wax-oil lubricants to reduce the shear between skin and PPE

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Prolonged use of tight-fitting PPE, e.g., by COVID-19 healthcare workers leads to skin injuries. An important contributor is the shear exerted on the skin due to static friction at the skin-PPE interface.

Variables influencing the frictional behaviour of in vivo human skin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In the past decades, skin friction research has focused on determining which variables are important to affect the frictional behaviour of in vivo human skin. Until now, there is still limited knowledge on these variables.

Monitoring Axial Force Development in a Super-Long Pile during Construction Using BOFDA and Data Interpretation Approaches: A Case Study

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
Long-term monitoring data for super-long piles are scarce and valuable. This paper reports axial strain measurements of a cast-in-place large-diameter pile embedded 76.7 m into a “weathered trench” of granite in Nanshan District, Shenzhen, China, using ...

From finger friction to brain activation: Tactile perception of the roughness of gratings

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Research, 2020
The formation of tactile perception is related to skin receptors and the cerebral cortex. In order to systematically study the tactile perception from finger friction to the brain response, a 32-channel Brain Products system and two tri-axial force ...

MHD Hybrid Nanofluid Flow over a Stretching/Shrinking Sheet with Skin Friction: Effects of Radiation and Mass Transpiration

open access: yesMagnetochemistry, 2023
The study of inclined magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) mixed convective incompressible flow of a fluid with hybrid nanoparticles containing a colloidal combination of nanofluids and base fluid is presented in the current research. Al2O3-Cu/H2O hybrid nanofluid
