Based on the hardware device and the generated friction coefficient, a rendering method combining electrovibration and ultrasonic vibration is introduced. Evaluation experiments on the tactile device ...
A research team led by Prof. Tian-Bao Ma from the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Tsinghua University has proposed a ...
Such a style usually involves an effective first serve, strong volley technique and the deployment of a slice backhand to ...
We review the historical and modern understanding of the most basic equation of friction, Amontons' law, which describes phenomena that were already understood and studied by Leonardo da Vinci 500 ...
Values of static and kinetic friction coefficient in micro slide bearings, consisting of journals and bushings (with the diameter of 3.5 mm) made of pairs of 5 polymer materials (16 chosen ...
Normal and shear forces were measured as a function of surface separation, D, between hydrophobized mica surfaces bearing layers of a hydrophobic−polyelectrolytic diblock copolymer, poly (methyl ...
Friction is a materials property. Basically, it is the force that resists the sliding motion of one surface against another. Contaminants, such as liquids, can change this value. The coefficient ...
