Change in drag, apparent slip and optimum air layer thickness for laminar flow over an idealised superhydrophobic surface [PDF]
Analytic results are derived for the apparent slip length, the change in drag and the optimum air layer thickness of laminar channel and pipe flow over an idealised superhydrophobic surface, i.e. a gas layer of constant thickness retained on a wall.

Variational approach to gas flows in microchannels on the basis of the Boltzmann equation for hard-sphere molecules [PDF]
This paper was presented at the 2nd Micro and Nano Flows Conference (MNF2009), which was held at Brunel University, West London, UK. The conference was organised by Brunel University and supported by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, IPEM, the ...

Automotive EMB Anti-lock Control Based on Optimal Slip Rate Estimation [PDF]
The traditional logic threshold-based ABS control method failed to fully utilize the road adhesion coefficient and caused significant slip rate fluctuations during operation.

Slip-rate-dependent friction as a universal mechanism for slow slip events [PDF]
A growing body of observations worldwide has documented fault slip transients that radiate little or no seismic energy. The mechanisms that govern these slow slip events (SSEs) and their wide range of depths, slip rates, durations, stress drops and ...

Computational Analysis of Wall Slip and Cavitation in Lubricated Sliding Systems [PDF]
Lubrication is applied to systems in which parts are in relative motion to avoid direct contact between the surfaces. The behavior of the fluid-film in sliding bearings depends on the boundary conditions at the interface between the liquid and the ...
