A simple, ultrahigh vacuum compatible scanning tunneling microscope for use at variable temperatures [PDF]
We present the construction of a very compact scanning tunneling microscope (STM) which can be operated at temperatures between 4 and 350 K. The tip and a tiny tip holder are the only movable parts, whereas the sample and the piezoscanner are rigidly ...

Dynamic Model and Quantitative Analysis of Stick-Slip Vibration in Horizontal Well
Stick-slip is very harmful to the service life of drillstring. The extended Hamilton principle is applied in the paper. Then, finite element method (FEM) is employed to describe the model.

Estimation of the normal contact stiffness for frictional interface in sticking and sliding conditions [PDF]
Modeling of frictional contact systems with high accuracy needs the knowledge of several contact parameters, which are mainly related to the local phenomena at the contact interfaces and affect the complex dynamics of mechanical systems in a prominent ...

Stick-slip instabilities in sheared granular flow: the role of friction and acoustic vibrations
We propose a theory of shear flow in dense granular materials. A key ingredient of the theory is an effective temperature that determines how the material responds to external driving forces such as shear stresses and vibrations. We show that, within our

On the formation of limit cycle of the friction-induced stick-slip vibration in oilwell drillstring
In this paper, the stick-slip vibration in oilwell drillstring is studied. The drilling system is modelled as a lumped-parameter torsional pendulum and the interaction between the drill bit and the rock is treated as Coulomb friction.
