Adhesive wear and interaction of tangentially loaded micro-contacts [PDF]
Current engineering wear models are often based on empirical parameters rather than built upon physical considerations. Here, we look for a physical description of adhesive wear at the microscale, at which the interaction between two surfaces comes down to the contact of asperities.

Effect of ZrB$_2$ additions on the thermal stability of polycrystalline diamond [PDF]
This study investigates the effect of ZrB$_2$ additions on the microstructure, thermal stability, and thermo-mechanical wear behaviour of polycrystalline diamond. Following high-pressure high-temperature (HPHT) sintering, the ZrB$_2$-PCD material showed a full conversion of the binder phase to cobalt-boride (Co2B and Co$_{23}$B$_6$) phases.

The friction and wear behavior of an Mg-10Gd-1.4Y-0.4Zr alloy were investigated in detail within a temperature range of 20 °C–200 °C in order to clarify temperature-induced mild-severe (M-S) wear transition mechanism and verify if contact surface dynamic

Adhesive wear mechanisms in the presence of weak interfaces: Insights from an amorphous model system [PDF]
Engineering wear models are generally empirical and lack connections to the physical processes of debris generation at the nanoscale to microscale. Here, we thus analyze wear particle formation for sliding interfaces in dry contact with full and reduced adhesion.

Higher frictional heat will be produced during the service process of artificial hip joint prosthesis in vivo than natural joint, which would cause the rise of the temperature of synovial fluid and the change of the wear resistance of prosthetic ...

Cortical Excitability Before and After Long‐Term Perampanel Treatment for Epilepsy
ABSTRACT Objective Antiseizure medications (ASMs), which may influence cortical excitability, are the mainstay of epilepsy treatment. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) helps evaluate cortical excitability. We assessed changes in TMS responses using serial TMS measurements in people treated with an adjunctive noncompetitive AMPA‐receptor ...

Sliding wear behaviour of salt bath nitrided 316LN austenitic stainless steel
The wear behaviour of AISI 316LN austenitic stainless steel has been studied by varying the duration of nitriding. AISI 316LN steel was nitrided using salt bath nitriding which consist of a mixture of 70:30 ratio of alkaline cynates and carbonates ...

Effects of Oxidation on the Tribological Properties of Diamond Sliding Against Silica. Insights from Ab initio Molecular Dynamics [PDF]
Tribological phenomena such as adhesion, friction, and wear can undermine the functionality of devices and applications based on the diamond-silica interface. Controlling these phenomena is highly desirable, but difficult since extrinsic factors, such as the surface termination by adsorbed species, can deeply affect the reactivity of diamond and its ...

ABSTRACT Objective Quantitative markers of cortical excitability may help identify responders to anti‐seizure medications (ASMs). We studied the relationship between ASM load and two electroencephalography (EEG) markers of cortical excitability in people with refractory epilepsy. Methods We included individuals with refractory focal epilepsy undergoing

Hydrogel‐Based Capacitive Sensor Model for Ammonium Monitoring in Aquaculture
Traditional techniques for monitoring aquaculture water quality, particularly ammonium levels, harm fish. This work presents a novel capacitive sensor with an ionic hydrogel transducer to monitor ammonium concentration in real time based on the ammonium‐induced hydrogel dissociation and osmotic pressure. Monitoring aquaculture water quality, especially
