Recent Progress on Wear‐Resistant Materials: Designs, Properties, and Applications
Advancement of science, 2021 There has been tremendous interest in the development of different innovative wear‐resistant materials, which can help to reduce energy losses resulted from friction and wear by ≈40% over the next 10–15 years.

Handbook of Contact Mechanics, 2019 The definition of wear may include loss of dimension from plastic deformation if it is originated at the interface between two sliding surfaces. However, plastic deformation such as yield stress is excluded from the wear definition if it doesn't ...

The effect of messaging and gender on intentions to wear a face covering to slow down COVID-19 transmission [PDF]
, 2020 Now that various countries are or will soon be moving towards relaxing shelter-in-place rules, it is important that people use a face covering, to avoid an exponential resurgence of the spreading of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19).

Reactive wear protection through strong and deformable oxide nanocomposite surfaces
Nature Communications, 2021 Wear-related energy and material loss cost over 2500 Billion Euro per year. Traditional wisdom suggests that high-strength materials reveal low wear rates, yet, their plastic deformation mechanisms also influence their wear performance. High strength and

Wear and Tear of Tyres: A Stealthy Source of Microplastics in the Environment
International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2017 Wear and tear from tyres significantly contributes to the flow of (micro-)plastics into the environment. This paper compiles the fragmented knowledge on tyre wear and tear characteristics, amounts of particles emitted, pathways in the environment, and ...

International Journal of Extreme Manufacturing, 2020 Diamond tools play a critical role in ultra-precision machining due to their excellent physical and mechanical material properties, such as that cutting edge can be sharpened to nanoscale accuracy. However, abrasive chemical reactions between diamond and

Wear Test Combining Simulated Occiusal Wear and Toothbrush Wear
Dental Materials Journal, 2003 A new wear testing system, which carries out toothbrush wear and simulated occlusal wear tests alternately, was developed. Differences in wear behavior among three modes of wears, combined wear, toothbrush wear and simulated occlusal wear, were investigated using polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) and two commercial resin composites (Z100, APX). The area of

Data Analysis to Study Sub-threshold Delays Incurred by Tyne and Wear Metro Trains
Urban Rail Transit, 2020 The performance of Tyne and Wear Metro system in the UK is measured on a headway basis, and gaps in service that are 4 min or more in excess of scheduled gaps are investigated and the cause documented.
