This article reviews the state of the knowledge and technology in the field of friction-loss
measurements in internal combustion piston engines. The dependencies that describe the …

The head and helmet frictional interface can affect the head's impact response. However,
headforms have known limitations to their biofidelity, including their friction characteristics …

The paper deals with the proposed concept of a biped robot with vertical stabilization of the
robot's base and minimization of its sideways oscillations. This robot uses 6 actuators, which …

This article deals with the problems that arise during the evaluation of the surface of the
components, which can have a fundamental impact on the functionality and service life of …

This paper aims to investigate and eliminate the measurement errors of coefficient of friction
(COF) in the rotating friction system of UMT-2 and the corresponding solutions are proposed …

Improving operating conditions and reducing the friction-related power losses of
hydrodynamic journal bearings could lower emissions and contribute to efforts for a faster …

Aiming at both high motion precision and high velocity is arduous in the development of
miniature robots because of contradictory aspects between the precision and the velocity. In …

Net velocity has been demonstrated for objects frictionally coupled to a flat plate that
oscillates periodically in-plane with two frequencies, provided plate displacement is …

Whisker sensors, typically fabricated by casting soft polymers, have a measurement range
determined by the mechanical properties of the soft polymer used, specifically, its Young's …

The stability analysis of the backfill support system has been a significant analysis of stope
performance in sto** mining method. For the past decades, the strength of exposed …
