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.

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 ...

Contact and frictional properties of stratum corneum of human skin

open access: yesBiosurface and Biotribology, 2015
Most skin tribology studies gave attention on the examination of frictional properties of normal and healthy skin surfaces. This study aims to investigate the frictional and mechanical properties of skin under different load and friction conditions after
