A Combinatorial Approach to Elucidating Tribochemical Mechanisms [PDF]
A new type of combinatorial tribological experiment is presented, which explores a series of tribological conditions, such as load and relative velocity, spatially separated as a "library” on one single sample.

Preliminary characterisation of the surface of cartilage following exposure to saturated and unsaturated synthetic lips [PDF]
Articular cartilage is covered by a microscopic structure known as surface amorphous layer. This surface structure is often the first victim of attack during cartilage degeneration, thereby resulting in a gross impairment in cartilage function such as ...
