Mathematical Analysis of Two Phase Saturated Nanofluid Influenced by Magnetic Field Gradient
Nanofluids are composed of nano-sized particles dispersed in a carrier liquid. The present investigation’s aim is to examine theoretically the magneto-thermomechanical coupling phenomena of a heated nanofluid on a stretched surface in the presence of ...

Improvement of Vibration Sensitivity by Tangential Vibration
A vibration sensitivity is usually defined by the minimum amplitude when a subject perceives the vibration with ω1which is the frequency of perpendicular direction on the skin surface. In this work, we are interested in how the vibration sensitivity at ω1is changed under the condition adding the tangential vibration with ω2which is the frequency of ...

The vibrations of texture [PDF]
The Pacinian channel has been implicated in the perception of fine textures (Hollins et al., Somatosens Mot Res 18: 253–262, 2001a). In the present study, we investigate candidate codes for Pacinian-mediated roughness perception. We use a Hall effect transducer to record the vibrations elicited in the skin when a set of textured surfaces is passively ...

Design and test of a novel accelerometer made-up of an optical-fiber embedded within a polymer resin
This paper presents a transducer for an optical-fiber accelerometer based on a polarization analysis. The transducer is made up of a fiber section embedded within a resin placed between two metallic pieces.

Multiscale analysis of friction behavior at fretting interfaces
Friction behavior at fretting interfaces is of fundamental interest in tribology and is important in material applications. However, friction has contact intervals, which can accurately determine the friction characteristics of a material; however, this ...

Rubber friction on smooth surfaces
We study the sliding friction for viscoelastic solids, e.g., rubber, on hard flat substrate surfaces. We consider first the fluctuating shear stress inside a viscoelastic solid which results from the thermal motion of the atoms or molecules in the solid.
