Friction Induced Skin Tags

open access: yesDermatology Online Journal, 2008
Skin tags are common benign neoplasm located predominantly in intertriginous skin. Generally of cosmetic concern, they can be easily treated with cryotherapy, electrodessication or snip-excision. Despite their high incidence data about their etiopathogenesis are scarce in the medical literature.

Experimental Study on the Negative Skin Friction of the Pile Group Induced by Rising and Lowering the Groundwater Level

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2021
Negative skin friction (NSF) has been one of the important factors in the design of pile foundation; especially, the influence of water level on the pile negative skin friction should be paid attention. In this paper, a series of model tests were carried

An In vivo Comparison of Biomimetic vs. Traditional Skin Moisturization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The aim of this study was to determine whether a biomimetic cream can deliver superior moisturisation to the skin of human volunteers aged over 60, compared to the effects of a conventional moisturiser containing high levels of petrolatum and mineral oil.

Friction and durability of virgin and damaged skin with and without skin cream treatment using atomic force microscopy

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Nanotechnology, 2012
Skin can be damaged by the environment easily. Skin cream is an effective and rapid way to moisten the skin by changing the skin surface properties. Rat skin and pig skin are common animal models for studies and were used as skin samples in this study ...

Indoor simulation tests on reducing negative skin friction of pile foundation

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2019
In order to find out the effects of different coatings on the reduction of negative skin friction, the cohesive soil with a plastic limit of 18% as the test soil is studied based on the large shear tests.

Skin tribology in sport

open access: yesBiosurface and Biotribology, 2021
This review describes the principles of skin friction and wear for the benefit of sports scientists, engineers and clinicians. Skin exhibits complex behaviour, defying tribological laws for dry contact; hence, its friction and wear characteristics are ...
